Default Re: Rumble Seat Risk

I don't have a car with a rumble seat but want one for the grandkids as well. It seems to me that a rumble seat is safer than the front seat of a roadster. Hard braking or hitting something will throw them into the dash as easily as the deck in front of the RS. The front seat is less safe because in a sharp turn, the door CAN some open and spill it's occupant. No side door in a RS. I would MUCH rather have the grand kids ride in a RS than in the back seat of my fordor with suicide doors. There really IS no safe place in a model A if you are in an accident. It's like driving on the road in a glorified golf cart with ZERO safety features built in.
