wheelchair van should give you all the freedom that you need to live the life you want. Of course, there are some important choices you’ll need to make when purchasing a wheelchair van, including things like whether you need a wheelchair lift or a ramp, whether you want hand controls installed and what seating configuration will work best for you and your family. However, you’ll also need to consider something else – your safety while in the vehicle. Wheelchair securement options exist to provide you with the best safety while you’re on the road, but you will need to know what system is right for you.
