On Christams Eve, I saw a woman driving on Uhuru Highway. Mistake number 1. A child of around five years was seated at the front passenger seat (we all know that the seat belt can not hold that size of a child well in the event of accient or hard braking). Kids from 0-6 years belong in specially designed car seats and at the back seat. That's why child locks are only found on the rear doors.
It always beats me how a both parents (i can forgive one parent in a car because may be she/he is not normal) can allow a child to stand and play at the dashboard while driving on the highway..... how? If anything happens, that child will be the first to hit the tarmac through the window! what love is that they are trying to show? It shows more of an irresponsible than a "loving" parent.
Even if the family does not have a special child seat, then let the person holding the child sit at the back! Some parents even allow their 4 year olds to play at the front seat while the mother is tucked in neatly at the back seat.... ridiculous!
