Thanks for all the advice roll on Easter and our 1st maiden voyage!!! Really good site, impressed with the people who want to help others.

 

Our home will have a further 4 long seating areas for beds but i suppose you could sit on them whilst travelling. Will check if these need belts as well.

 

Once again a big THANKS !!!!

Then it will need 3 point at both the fronts. What other seats will you be having?

If its a motorhome, and by that I mean a proper conversion, with the log book changed to reflect that, then its a class 4 and class 4 regs apply.
If its still a psv and tested as a psv then PSV regs apply. If its a bit of both then it will probably be tested as a HGV, and you guesses it HGV regs apply. So we need more info as stated in  the previous answer.

Hi

 

Can anyone give me advice please. I have converted a PCV coach into a motorhome but cannot get a definitive answer as to whether i need to use 3 way seat belts or whether lap belts will suffice for front seat passenges.?

 

Thanks for any direction to the anwer so i can change the registration over and have it MOT'd approprately.
