Crew seats

28A.(1) Every crew seat shall be so constructed and located that when it is in use—

(a)the person by whom it is occupied—

(i)is adequately protected by means of arm rests from falling sideways either to the left or to the right,

(ii)may conveniently place his feet either on a deck of the vehicle or on a foot rest, and

(iii)does not impede the driving of the vehicle either by obstructing the driver's field of vision or otherwise; and

(b)a space of at least 300 millimetres exists, along the whole width of the seat, between the foremost edge of the seat and any other part of the vehicle.

(2) Every crew seat shall be so constructed and located that when it is not in use—

(a)no part of it impedes the driving of the vehicle either by obstructing the driver's field of vision or otherwise; and

(b)every part of it which, when the seat is ready for or in use, protrudes into a gangway so that the provisions of Regulation 26(1)(c) and (g) are not complied with, is, as a result of automatic mechanism, retracted so that those provisions are complied with.

(3) The words “FOR CREW USE ONLY” shall be marked either on or near and in relation to every crew seat in letters not less than 10 millimetres tall and in a colour which contrasts with their background.

(4) The provisions of paragraph (1)(a) to (f) of Regulation 28 apply as respects a crew seat in the same manner as they apply as respects a seat to which that Regulation applies..
