Disability Seat
Sometimes the problem is simply access to the vehicle. Adaptations are available which :
- Let the seat swivel to the side, to make access easier.
- Let the seat swivel to the side, and then extend and lower out of the vehicle.
- Let the seat swivel to the side, extend and lower out of the vehicle, then extend wheels and detach, making a little wheel chair.
The issues for Certification involve- security of the seat when driving, security of the seatbelt anchorage, if it is on the seat, and interior impact, especially for the occupants of the seat behind. In the picture, the removable seat has projecting handles which would be dangerous to a person nin the seat behind. In this case, the handles fold down, and have padded covers.

hi there,
This is Mohd from Saudi Arabia. Currently, i’m studying master degree in Microbiologyat Otago uni in Dunedin, NZ. Actually, i’m interested to be a business partner in disability adaptions. what is more, there is no branches which offer disability adaptions not just in Saudi Arabia even in the middle east . However, we have a lot of disability people there. I think we can earn a lot of money if we opened branches there. So, if there any a franchise opportunity please let me know and i’ll come to your company to discuss more about that.
thanks
Mohd

I have a 1979 Denning Coach 40 Ft long that I am building into a motor home but would like to find out what the seat belt requirements are for Western Australia. The origanal bus was a 53 seater and did not have any seat belts in it when I purchased it. I have purchased 2 new airride seats that come with lap belts and were wondering if I have done the right thing.
Cheers Craig
I am unable to advise on this, as my authority is only for light vehicles in New Zealand. Sorry. John Brett
