Nope. because even though those are "low" speeds, the drivers are distracted and the likelihood of fender benders is increased.
We'll be driving in our friends minivan, and he'll be in the middle row.
Oh, well if you have a minivan you can do what I saw two families doing at a holiday display last year: Open the sliding door and have the kids stand there while you drive through. They get a MUCH better view that way.
(Disclaimer: that was sarcasm--though I really did see it happen.)
It's ok, I figured it out. I'm going to put him RF on the top of the minivan. I'm pretty sure they have a roof rack. Safe AND a good view. Best of both worlds. :thumbsup:
I think I'm just going to leave him RF though, mostly because it'll be a huge PITA to switch the seat out at the beginning and the end and I don't want to tick off our friends. LOL.
Ok I will admit it. I plan to turn DD FF to go to the light shows. I plan to turn her around at 2 which is in exactly one month. So I have no problem turning her around for one trip. It's a parental decision I've made and I am very comfortable with it.
I think, again just *me* thinking this....that FF at a year and with weight requirments (even though is not*AS* safe, if at all and my kids are 8weeks, 1yrs and 2yrs and ALL RF still) is allowed so I feel that driving a mile through a light show would be fine and would still be safe to do. This is just me and my feelings.
I do think it would be kind of a hassel to install the seat RF only to get there and turn the child FF and then stop again to install the seat RF again and THEN remove it and install back into your car.
I must not understand this correctly :scratcheshead: did you say you would FF your 8mo for a lights show??
