Wheeled Child conveyances

 

From January 1st 1999 major changes in the law relating to the sale of both new and secondhand wheeled child conveyances came into force. The term “wheeled child conveyances” refers to all wheeled vehicles designed to carry one or two babies or infants, but does not apply to transporters for carrycots, toys or vehicles enabling children to move themselves about.

 

Wheeled child conveyances must conform to British Standard 7409 (or equivalent European Standard) and must be permanently marked BS7409, 1996, together with the name or trademark of the importer.

 

A permanent notice on the vehicle should state: children should be harnessed in at all times and should never be left unattended. The child should be clear of moving parts whilst making adjustments. The vehicle requires regular maintenanceby the user. Overloading, read the instructions.

 

Instructions in English must be supplied with each vehicle. These are to be headed: IMPORTANT, KEEP FOR REFERENCE and must include instructions relating to operation, assembly, use and maintenance.
