meet many needs of the user. However, final selection of the type of wheelchair to be used by an
individual rests solely with the user and his/her healthcare professional capable of making such a
selection.

wheelchairs. As of this date, the Department of Transportation has not approved any tie-down
systems for transportation of a user while in a wheelchair, in a moving vehicle of any type.
It is Invacare's position that users of wheelchairs should be transferred into appropriate seating in
vehicles for transportation and use be made of the restraints made available by the auto indus-
