Hauling kids in your classic cars

[Lynn]

We bought a pair of "convertible" child seats a few years back for the twins. They are now six.

When they were smaller, the seats had their own harness system, and only needed a lap belt to hold the whole seat in. Now that they are bigger, they just use the bottom, so no harness set up. If the car doesn't have shoulder harness, it will not work on those.

I find it strange that the bus they ride to school has no restraints of any kind.

Isn't that interesting? We live in a world that pushes safety and big deals are made about shoulder belts, seat belt laws, etc... Yet school busses that shuttle millions of children back and forth every day still don't have seat belts.

My son never road the bus, took him back and forth every day myself. So even as he got older and was only retained with a lap belt in our classics it was still more than the school busses had.
