hybrid (mostly remote) job concerned I don’t drive?

I legally cannot drive due to a disability. My doctor does not allow it. I did not disclose disability or not driving when I was hired, as driving is not part of the job or job duties, and nothing in the contract stated that I was required or preferred to have a car and driver’s license. Recently when applying for a keycard for the office (which includes a parking pass) they asked for my drivers license and car details, to which I responded “oh I’m sorry, I don’t have a car or license. I have my state ID, does that work?” So now my supervisor knows I do not have a license and has, since Monday, expressed twice his “concern” with this even though I have never had any issue getting to the office on time for all mandatory meetings.

He even said he didn’t have any idea I didn’t have a car/license since I’m always on time.

Today was an optional “workshop” meeting which I was planning to attend but unfortunately at the last minute could not due to my card declining. I informed him of this and now he wants me to talk to his higher up. I have never been late nor called out. I’m extremely worried I’m going to lose my job simply for not being able to drive.

I hate it here.
