Frequently Asked Questions

• What is a transit wheelchair?
  A transit wheelchair is a manual wheelchair with smaller back wheels and push handles. It is designed to be pushed by someone else, not moved by the user. They are lighter and more compact than self-propelled wheelchairs, which makes them easier to lift, store and manoeuvre.
• Can a transit wheelchair be used for everyday light use?
  Yes, a transit wheelchair can be a good choice for short trips like hospital visits or shopping trips. They are also suitable for indoor use and crash-tested versions can be used on public or community transport. Transit wheelchairs have folding frames for easy storage in a car boot or small cupboard.
• Is there a difference between transit and crash-tested wheelchairs?
  Yes. A crash-tested wheelchair has been approved for use as a seat while travelling in a car or accessible vehicle such as a taxi, bus or community transport vehicle. These chairs are fitted with tie-down points for safety. A standard transit wheelchair is not crash-tested, so you will need to transfer into a car seat during travel.
• Can I fold a transit wheelchair by myself?
  Yes. Most transit wheelchairs have simple folding frames that collapse in seconds. You can usually fold them by lifting the seat or pulling up on handles. Some models also have quick-release wheels or folding footrests to make storage even easier.
