Disability Seat

Sometimes the problem is simply access to the vehicle. Adaptations are available which :

  1. Let the seat swivel to the side, to make access easier.
  2. Let the seat swivel to the side, and then extend and lower out of the vehicle.
  3. 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.
