Personal Vehicles & Caregiver Transport
Accessible Vans · Family Transport · Private Caregivers
✓ SAE J2249 ✓ WC19 ✓ Best Practice
Private individuals and family caregivers transporting wheelchair users in personal or modified vehicles are not subject to federal securement regulations — but bear a significant duty of care. Using a SAE J2249-rated four-point WTORS with lap-and-shoulder belt provides the same safety level as commercial transport and is the strongest protection in a crash.
