*ANSI/RESNA standard WC19 Wheelchairs Used as Seats in Motor Vehicles is a voluntary industry standard that establishes minimum design and performance requirements for wheelchairs that are occupied by users traveling in motor vehicles. One of the most important design requirements of the standard is for the wheelchair to provide four specific attachment points that facilitate proper and effective securement of the wheelchair facing forward in vehicles using a four-point, strap-type tiedown that complies with SAE J2249 Wheelchair Tiedown and Occupant Restraint Systems for Use in Motor Vehicles. The wheelchair must be successfully crash tested in a 30-mph, 20-g frontal sled test using these securement points. In addition, since May 2002, WC19 requires that wheelchairs be crash tested with a wheelchair-anchored pelvic safety belt. This belt connects to a vehicle-anchored shoulder belt, thereby offering the user a potentially better fit of the pelvic belt with reduced interference of personal space by another individual. The last column of the table indicates whether a wheelchair was crash tested with and is available with a wheelchair-anchored pelvic belt. Some products are listed even though not fully compliant with this provision of WC19 because these wheelchairs have been sucessfully crash-tested and provide 4 securement points which improves passenger protection.

What a greet investment! We researched many special needs strollers before making our purchase and were very interested in the Convaid strollers based on the reputation and they are manufactured in the USA. We didn't need a lot of support for our son, justsomething to push him around in if he gets tired. The Convaid Metro was the most basic model and it turned out to be great. He can sit up and see around and the stroller gives him plenty of support. Thanks for your help in selecting the best model.
