I don't where else to post this but I'm just a bit shocked. Woke up to find a carseat pic on Facebook, and it's in a limo. The child is sideways in a GN! And he's 2 so I would rear-face...but sideways face? OMG! And there is no indication anyone else is buckled. Other baby is in a proper seat though the proper direction. Parents are baby doctors.

Sideways facing?? It's killing me!
Mom already noted that the child should be in the forward seat in the limo but dad let him choose.
Anything I can think of to say just sounds like a kill joy. I'm totally awake now.

I can't tell if the seat is buckled, just that the child is buckled into the seat.
Sideways facing is killing this rear-facing nut, lol.

I'm thrilled they have the child in a seat!! People typically ignore car seats in limo.

At 2, I'm okay with a FFing seat. I don't know- I guess I just think it could be worse.

Yeah, it should be on a ff seat. Hopefully mom told dad and it won't happen again. If the seat was otherwise properly used, at least he was restrained.

I remember the look the limo driver gave me when I asked about seat belts on my wedding day. I had my class 4 driver's license back then (small school bus) and I knew you didn't *need* one, so his comments fell on deaf ears. I simply asked him if the laws of physics applied in his car and if momentum still occurred. Then, we waited for him to pull out less than clean seat belts and my mom to grab a towel to cover my white dress...

So thrilled they bothered w/ a seat for the child and agree it was silly to put it side ways, but better than nothing and better than no belt at all...
