| 525705 | 2007-02-19 07:35:00 | Can anyone advise if it's legal to carry passenger(s) on the tray of a flat deck ute and/or in a boat being towed on a trailer? Thanks |

| 525708 | 2007-02-19 08:46:00 | Can a passenger ride in a light trailer or boat while it’s being towed? This is not recommended. Riding in or on a vehicle, or an object which is being transported on a vehicle, in a manner or position that may cause injury is prohibited e.g. no-one may sit on a load while it is being towed. www.ltsa.govt.nz |

| 525711 | 2007-02-19 19:53:00 | its actually not that bad. worse thing is a side on impact accident or rolling over and being flung off the ute. head on accident you simply get crushed up against the the headboard which you are sitting against. mind you you also tend to FREEZE riding oon the back too ;) |

| 525712 | 2007-02-19 20:26:00 | Campervans have to have a seat belt installed for each berth. We have the normal belts in the cab of our 4 berth motorhome plus two more in the seating area. All checked during the 6 monthly COF test. The answer to the original question, NO. |
