Nice to see sombebody write exactly what one thinks !
My daughters love to sit in the back (7 an 10 Years) for short trips. Of
course driving very carefully taking my responsibility. I liked to sit on an
(nowerdays) unsafe tracktor when I was a kid. Sit on your knees looking at
the car behind you see and feel the movement of the car.
Big brother wants us to step in a cocoon at birth and be terminated at 65 .
Better for insurance and costfriendly.
I drive no motorbike because of the helmet.
Anyway good to hear I am not alone in this.
