I am concerned about the safety of my child or myself sitting in the jumper seats of this truck. I was told by dot that a 3 pt. Seat beat was safest. It is recommended that children sit in the back of vehicles, but since there is only a lap belt, how safe is it for a 6 year old to sit in the jumper seat? does crash tests show that the lap belt is sufficient for adults sitting in the jumper seat?.
