ABSTRACT:
A restraining apparatus in a vehicle, such as a bus, comprises a post movable from a depressed, horizontally extending position to an upright position. A U-shaped clamp on the upright post engages the front of a wheelchair wheel the back of which is engaged by another U-shaped clamp attached to the vehicle, to hold the wheelchair wheel in compression. A padded arm attached to the top of the post is movable from a retracted position, hanging down alongside the post, to a horizontally extending non-restraining position and then to a restraining position extending across the chest of the wheelchair occupant.
