Hi there,
We have an old Vectra B we use to ferry the kids about to football, judo, music etc and we sling the 3 kids in the back on booster seats (age 4, 7 & 9) and as the other one of us is usually working when we do this the front seat is always empty. I can't help thinking it would be far safer to put the older one in the front with a proper "across the chest" seatbelt as opposed to the belt type thing that exists in the middle seat at the rear. The car only has a driver's airbag so that going off in his face isn't a concern.
Anyone any idea on the law about this? I've seen kids in the front seats of vans but I've no idea what the law states.
Thanks.
