It's illegal because it could be dangerous if you get into an accident.

according to the law, each person in a vehicle has to have their own seatbelt.


JetDoc
Nope... Sorry. Only one customer per belt.

If you need a bigger car for a couple of days,then why not rent one?


VIRGO
There's just not enough room, I'm sure your bff will understand.And besides its illegal.

I believe its illegal to double buckle.If this is the case,you can not legally fit 5 people.however maybe someone has a van you could borrow to take the trip & you could let them use yours.Good Luck with this.and either way have a safe trip.

Merry Christmas!


UCANTCME
Legally you cannot do this and I would consider the safety issue as well.

Merry Xmas

4 seater = 4 people not possibly 5 or 6.of course it's illegal.
If you are caught expect a first warning or a fixed penalty ticket.

I would tell your bf you care too much to put him in danger. Which is what you would be doing. Two people in one seat belt in an accident is a disaster. The 2 could be killed.

Yes, a less important issue is that its against the law, and you could be fined.

Double buckling is illegal, and can contribute to severe injuries if an accident occurs.

Sorry, but it looks like you need to check into renting a van or SUV for this trip, or someone stays home.

You CANNOT double buckle!

When you do the forces between the two people will stay within the seatbelt, but the two people will be smashed together.

You can usually install a 5th seatbelt between the two rear-seat people, use the same mounting bolts as the two inner rear seat belts mount to. I did this on a `96 GEO Metro.

if you double belt with someone on your lap, and get in a wreck, the person behind will crush the person on their lap into the seat belt and kill them.
