More and more people movers are coming out with optional rotating mid row seats to allow for more room in the back rows – and just something different.  Although you may not have seen this often before, it’s not actually new – and has been an ongoing question for child safety seat technicians since the 1980s.  To this day the answer is still the same.

Best Practice: No – regardless of if they are rotated sideways or rear facing you should not fit a child safety seat to any vehicles seat that does not face towards the front.  However you can fit a child safety seat to a rotating vehicles seat if the vehicles seat is locked in it’s forward facing position
