(i)not be less than 120mm and not more than 200mm in height, and
(ii)the surface of the tread shall not be less than 300mm deep and not less than 400mm wide;
(f)any steps between a gangway and a passenger seat or a row of passenger seats, other than a step to any seat fitted to any part of a wheelarch, shall not be more than 250mm in height; and
(g)in a flight of steps, the difference in height between any two steps shall not be more than 10mm.
(2) The height of a step in sub-paragraph (1) shall be measured vertically from the surface of the tread, and at the centre of the tread width, to an imaginary line extended horizontally from the surface of the next tread or floor of the vehicle.
(3) An external step, leading from not less than one priority entrance and to not less than one priority exit, shall—
(a)not be more than 250mm in height measured—

(5) Where a regulated public service vehicle is fitted with a power-operated step, that step shall—
(a)not be capable of operation whilst the vehicle is in motion, and
(b)be fitted with a safety device which stops the motion of the step if the step is subject to a reactive force not exceeding 150N in any direction and if that motion could cause injury to a passenger.
