child car seat wheels
BLACK CAB question, kids in double buggy, can I wheel them on?
I have used black cabs for the last 4 years, I have 2 pre-school children and can’t carry 2 car seats around with me shopping! I don’t drive obviously, and the bus service isn’t great.
I phoned for a cab today to go to a birthday party, and was told they cannot send out a black cab unless I fold the pushchair up! Which would have meant 2 kids strapped into seats meant for adults.
I have been getting black cabs off the ranks and wheeling my darlings on in their buggy all the time, so I am a little confused!
Who is right?
I called another company and they were fine with it…
WELL I WOULD THINK THAT THEY ARE TO FOLLOW THE SAME RULES THAT WE ALL DO.
1. BEFORE YOUR FIRST BIRTHDAY LESS THAN 20 POUNDS REAR-FACING INFANT-ONLY CAR SEAT OR CONVERTIBLE SEAT USED IN REAR-FACING POSITION, SECURED IN THE BACK SEAT OF THE CAR.
2. 20–35 POUNDS CONVERTIBLE SEAT USED IN REAR-FACING POSITION, SECURED IN THE BACK SEAT OF THE CAR. LOOK FOR A CHILD SAFETY SEAT THAT IS RECOMMENDED FOR HEAVIER INFANTS.
3. WHEN YOU ARE 1, 2, 3, AND 420–40 POUNDS FACE FORWARD IN A CONVERTIBLE SEAT OR A FORWARD-FACING-ONLY SEAT OR HIGH-BACK BOOSTER/HARNESS IN THE BACK SEAT OF THE CAR.
