Bruno curb side lift

English to French Other Automotive / Cars & Trucks
While the van prescription outlined the costs for hand controls, a foldout power ramp, kneeling suspension and six-way captain’s chair that allowed for wheelchair entry and transfer to the driver’s seat, he purchased a van equipped with hand controls and a “Bruno curb side lift” only. The curb side lift was subsequently removed as he described it more as a hindrance than a help. His stated preference is to manually swing the wheelchair into the van and, on days when his shoulders are painful, he disassembles the wheelchair to facilitate easier loading.

monte-charge latéral ? Bruno serait la marque ?

Si, mon van a un coffre. Onl'appelle comme ça en France, en tout cas, même si ça n'a pas la même forme que les petites voitures.

Ascenseur de fauteuil roulant

Ca devrait être "kerb side".
Voir le lien Internet. Vous avez raison Bruno est la marque.

neutral Gayle Wallimann : "Curb side" is US English. The text must be of US origin.
