Well, I have the Brat licensed, insure and clean so I'm taking it out with the kids tonight to cruise around Puyallup. Since our law enforcement agencies are so wonderful, I expect to be pulled over by the first cop that sees us for the kids being in the back. I know I can get out of the ticket since it was built to DOT regulations and shipped to the US that way, not to mention the DMV registered it as a passenger vehicle (they actually asked me if it was a car or truck. Of course I said car... lol) I know others have had this problem and was just wondering if they got a ticket and the outcome.

Without seatbelts in the back, you could get a ticket.

I haven't had passengers back there, but I have been told that they treat Brats like trucks. You can have passengers back there, but they want you to fill all the available seats inside first. Of course, it all depends on who sees you too. Some cops are just sticklers for certain things.

No, I have the rear seat belts as well and since the RCW reads "passengers must use all available seat belts" it doesn't matter if there's a seat open in the front if the rears have belts. I've done my research and printed the RCW. I'll be ready.....

this will not work on 86+87 BRATS fyi for those with those years.

only 1985 back to 78

Because they didn't come with the seats
