Middle seat in a 90

(1/3) > >>

baz2236:
Hi does anyone know if I could legally use the middle seat in my 90 I would like to put my kid in the middle seat on her booster seat. Is this allowed or not.

How are you going to hold it in, when there is only a lap belt fitted?

baz2236:
I was going to use the lap belt
if I am allowed to use a lap belt with a booster

Llanigraham:
I think you will have to abide by the height regulations, and personally I wouldn't trust a child in just a lap belt. I'm sure there was a film from the Roads Reseaerch people showing how they "folded" up and caused massive internal damage

V8MoneyPit:
If you have no choice but to carry the child in the centre seat, then any belt is better than no belt..... however, the centre seat location means their head might end up directly in line with the gearlever in a crash. Not something I'd be happy with.

I'd never heard about the internal injuries issue, but I have no reason to doubt it.

On a related note, have you ever driven the vehicle with someone in the centre seat? It's almost impossible to change gear  :shock:
