Warning 1:
If
you are kneeling on a seat, therefore facing
backwards, and the coach stops suddenly the
spine can be severely injured
Warning 2:
If
you are standing in the gangway while the coach
is in motion, sudden braking will throw
passengers forwards, possibly into the
windscreen
In
either circumstance, the insurance company is
likely to reject a claim for personal injury on
the grounds that the passenger was not correctly
seated.
Remember
you must have your seatbelt on at all times
