Child safety - Is 4 point harness an answer?

Hi,

Has anyone considered fitting 4 point harness' seatbelts to the rear seat in place of the lap belts? I am thinking of improving the child safety in the rear of our bus and it appears this could be an answer as it should be possible to mount directly to the existing lap belt mounting points.

I am sure I am missing something here; it really can't be as simple as it appears!

You can even get these belts with clips that allow you to remove them quickly if they effect the operation of the bed!

This is the type of belt I am thinking of http://www.kpautomotive.co.uk/clubman-h ... p-113.html" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

What do you think, will this work?

We're discussing rear seat safety in general in this topic. Theres quite a lot to this as well as seat belts.

This video may make you reconsider how your children are buckled up: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=azgBhZfcqaQ" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

I'm afraid there are still children being inadequately protected and its important to think about what you use now and whether it is enough.
