Ensuring the safety and comfort of individuals during transportation is a top priority, especially for those requiring additional support. EZ-ON Vests, particularly the 303Z, MAX2 and MAXPV models, offer reliable solutions that combine ease of use, safety, and comfort.
EZ-ON 303Z Adjustable Zipper Vest
The 303Z Adjustable Zipper Vest is designed for versatility, making it suitable for both personal vehicles and buses. Its rear zipper closure prevents passengers from accidentally or deliberately removing the vest during transit, enhancing safety. The vest features three zipper options and adjustable shoulders, allowing it to grow with the passenger and accommodate various sizes.
EZ-ON MAX2 School Bus Houdini Vest
The MAX2 Vest is tailored specifically for school bus transportation, addressing the needs of individuals who may attempt to remove their safety gear during transit. It includes a rear zipper closure with a zipper lock, preventing unintended removal. All connector points are inaccessible to the passenger, ensuring the vest remains securely fastened. The MAX2 Vest is dynamically crash-tested for passengers weighing between 31 to 168 pounds, meeting Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards (FMVSS) 213.
EZ-ON MAXPV Zipper Transportation Vest
The MAXPV Vest is the most secure choice for use on personal vehicles. The vest has many features to ensure the safety and security of the wearer and prevent unintended removal. This is typically recommended for “Houdinis” who have a tendency to try to remove their safety gear. The MAXPV is a great option for anyone looking for a safe, secure way to transport a wide variety of passengers.
Ease of Use
The 303Z, MAX2 and MAXPV models are designed with user-friendliness in mind. The rear zipper closures facilitate quick and straightforward application and removal, reducing the time and effort required by caregivers. The adjustable features ensure a customized fit, accommodating growth and varying body sizes. These design elements make the vests practical for daily use, especially in settings where multiple individuals may need to be secured efficiently.
Safety Features
Safety is paramount in the design of EZ-ON Vests. Both models meet or exceed FMVSS 213, ensuring they provide reliable protection during transit. The rear zipper closures and, in the case of the MAX2, the zipper lock, prevent passengers from unfastening the vests, reducing the risk of injury. Additionally, the vests are designed to be used with compatible mounts, such as the 100TM Tether Mount for family vehicles and the 100M2SMU for school buses, ensuring secure attachment to the vehicle seat.
Comfort Considerations
Comfort is a critical aspect of the 303Z, MAX2 and MAXPV vests. The materials used are selected to provide a snug yet comfortable fit, suitable for extended wear. The adjustable shoulder straps and multiple zipper options allow for a personalized fit, accommodating different body sizes and shapes. This adaptability is particularly beneficial for individuals with sensory sensitivities, ensuring they remain comfortable throughout the journey.
Versatility and Application
The 303Z Vest's adaptability makes it suitable for various transportation modes, including personal vehicles and buses. Its design allows it to be used with different mounting systems, providing flexibility for families and organizations. The MAX2 Vest, with its enhanced security features, is ideal for school bus settings, ensuring that passengers who may attempt to remove their safety gear remain securely fastened. This specialization makes it a preferred choice for school transportation providers seeking to maintain high safety standards.
