Is it safe for children? Options

[blonde914]

Big discussion this morning over talk radio and putting your kids in the front seat of the car. Even with car seats and seat belts it is the air bag that is the big issue right, besides the weight and height restrictions for seatbelts? Do you take your children in your 914's, and do you think it is safe. Everyone gave me a hard time because I take my youngest in the 914 with me. We use her booster seat and the new seat belts. In our other cars she is always in the back seat because of air bags ect... I don't drive the same when she or any one else is in the 914 with me, I am slow and law abiding. Do you take your kids out in the cars and do you think they are safe. Are there any statistics for these cars and saftey? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving-girl.gif)

Driving our newly acquired 914 from Maine to Chicago along Penn. Turnpike, viewing the Buick's front tires at the same level as my head had a great influence. I am a Father of three boys and drove Volvo station wagons. First modification to the 914 was welded in complete roll cage with side incursion bars and 3" wide five point restraints. Fortunately have never been used but feels a lot better. Unrecognized benifit, keeps me limber.
Avitar is David my youngest at 8y/o.
