Specially converted, Wheelchair Accessible Vehicles (WAVs) enable wheelchair users to travel as a driver or passenger. These vehicles feature significant adaptations that enable customers to gain easy access and remain in their wheelchair whilst travelling.
They may be more suitable for customers who are no longer able to transfer from their wheelchair to a standard car seat or whose carer is unable to lift them into the vehicle. For those who can transfer from their wheelchair without too much comfort then a standard car with adaptations may still be the better option.
