Note 20

Where a seat has been removed, a seatbelt is not required for that position, and any remaining seatbelt or seatbelt anchorage components are not required to be inspected. Where seatbelt or seatbelt anchorage components remain fitted, and the vehicle is such that the removed seats can be readily re-fitted and used with the seatbelts, the vehicle inspector must:

Identify which seats were missing when the vehicle was presented for inspection, andAdvise the vehicle operator that the remaining seatbelt components have not been checked, and that if the missing seats are re-fitted at a later stage, it is the vehicle operators' responsibility to ensure that these seats and seatbelts are compliant prior to using them.

If the inspector chooses to inspect any remaining seatbelt components, then they should identify that to the vehicle operator. Any defects should be noted on the checksheet, but must not be failed. The same information as noted above must be recorded on the checksheet to make it clear that the responsibility lies with the vehicle operator if seats are re-fitted.

좌석을 떼어내는건 wof 와 상관없습니다.

감사합니다

아. 제가 알기론 좌석 떼어냈을때 안전밸트도 떼던가 재배치 하셔야 하는걸로... 제거된 좌석의 안전벨트가 그대로 있으면 WoF에서 문제가 될 수 있습니다.
그리고 뒷좌석을 제거하고 평탄화하는 작업은 차량의 구조적인 변경으로 간주될 수 있습니다. 이 경우, NZTA에서 승인된 구조 변경검사 받아야 하는걸로 압니다만...
