A toddler on a preschooler's lap in the front seat :mad::mad::mad::mad::mad:. And going through the most dangerous intersection in my town. I tried to chase them down but they had disappeared by the time I could turn around. GAH. People are so ignorant.

My sister in law just posted the same thing yesterday on Facebook (she lives in KY). She called 911...said the lady was driving like a maniac with an approximate 5 year old holding a 1-2 year old on lap in front seat. :-( So sad.... One guy responded to her post how he rides around the small town he lives in (neighboring town to mine) with his 3 year old in the front seat bc they aren't going far and he did it when he was younger. Soooooo proud of my father in law who laid into him how they didn't have all this back then and it's negligent to ignore the laws and safety of your children. Makes me happy....my sil plans on erf her youngest and bought a gn that her 4 y/o rides in (because of all the info I gave her).

I know! I wanted to chase down someone with a little one riding in the carseat, but not buckled in the other day.

Same thing over here too often, too. Yesterday I saw a lady getting a little girl [around 10 months old] out of carseat -- the seat was a bucket and placed FF [therefore not fastened in car in any way]. I've seen people place their child in car in a seat taken of a stroller [stroller seat, not carseat] ...
Yesterday I accidentally stumbled upon [warning -- really really horrible and scary!!!] this ad video, maybe something like that could make those people think?

Wow! That video is shocking! Made me feel sick to my stomach. But its reality.
