We recommend that you do not sit on your wheelchair when in a vehicle, but
transfer to a vehicle seat. A wheelchair secured in a vehicle will not provide the
equivalent safety level and security as the vehicle's seating systems.
However, when transfer is not practical or impossible, ensure the following:
1) Check that the vehicle is suitably designed, insured and equipped to transport
a passenger seated in a wheelchair
2) Remove any part of the wheelchair (accessories, etc.) that can be easily detached
and store it in the vehicle's luggage hold
3) Make sure the wheelchair is transported in a forward facing direction. Rearward
facing is only acceptable if the passenger's head and back can be supported by a
suitable bulkhead
4) Use the buckle seat belt (if fitted) with your chair as additional restraint
To assist you in storing the chair for transportation. First remove the footrests,
fold down the rear push handles and fold the chair as described in earlier para-
graph.
Ensure the back upholstery folds to the rear of the chair and in a tidy manner.
