abu Posted October 29, 2008 Share Posted October 29, 2008 I've heard about this before, you can have additional passengers in the car as long as the seat belts in the car are being used 5 seat belts, if 5 people are wearing it then you can have 6, 7, 8, 9 etc people in the car without belts and there not doing anything wrong Makes no sense..

BigDirtyJase Posted October 29, 2008 Share Posted October 29, 2008 it makes no sense! but if you a copper pulled you over and saw there are one too many people in the car you will get fined (I think) or they will make the extra passengets get out Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/242272-eight-in-car-not-illegal/#findComment-4225522 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Black Widow Posted October 29, 2008 Share Posted October 29, 2008 I've heard about this before, you can have additional passengers in the car as long as the seat belts in the car are being used5 seat belts, if 5 people are wearing it then you can have 6, 7, 8, 9 etc people in the car without belts and there not doing anything wrong Makes no sense.. Exactly. Because if you've got people in the car, not wearing seat belts, then its obviously a safety issue. And i would've thought that, that would be classed as endangaring innocent people which is a crime?

DogKnight Posted October 29, 2008 Share Posted October 29, 2008 Excellent. So it wasn't against the law when I had 5 people in the back seat of my 'line. I'm with you Ash, shotgun front seat though.

jezza boii Posted October 29, 2008 Share Posted October 29, 2008 That's actually a relief. Owning an MR2 is a real hassle, being a 2-seater. I've often wondered if it was legal to put a 3rd person on the floor in front of the passenger seat. It means I can bring 2 girls home and not worry about getting in trouble Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/242272-eight-in-car-not-illegal/#findComment-4225838 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnny Posted October 29, 2008 Share Posted October 29, 2008 I had 5 hot girls from 'our ladies college' in my line once; I would have gladly taken the fine!! Another time i had 3 of my friends in the back and 2 at the front passenger seat; the unfortunate soul had his feet into the firewall and his head in the lap on the passenger. When we spotted a police car I rammed his head facedown into his crotch and said get down. the cop pulled us over and the first words he said was "this looks kinky" didnt fine us though; i think the joke factor was enough to mask any anger. lolz Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/242272-eight-in-car-not-illegal/#findComment-4225924 Share on other sites More sharing options...

DogKnight Posted October 29, 2008 Share Posted October 29, 2008 Yeah, i've pulled up in front of a club to let some friends out before. My mate jumped out and we got a few jeers from a few douches waiting in line. Then he opened up the seat and 5 female friends all climbed out one after the other. Probably had to be there but was funny to see the look on their faces.

gdogzgtr Posted October 29, 2008 Share Posted October 29, 2008 From the first time I found this out when I was in the Academy I was baffled. I bet most police don't or didn't even know this rule. I hope it gets changed as it is a safety issue. Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/242272-eight-in-car-not-illegal/#findComment-4226492 Share on other sites More sharing options...
