In it against the law, to ride in a cargo van?

Question

I want to buy a cargo van. It a van without seats and I want to know it I can carry passengers (my family) in the van.

Answer 1

Only in the front two seats as there are no other seat belts thus no passengers.

Answer 2

It's not legal, but you'll only have a problem if you crash or get stopped by the cops. Better to buy a passenger van.

You can get a two year old 12 or 15 passenger van for about HALF the price of a new one.

Answer 3

You cannot legally carry more passengers than you have seats with seat belts.

Answer 4

Cargo vans can only carry two people ( front seats ) because they have seat belts.  Sounds like your trying to load up on taco makers from accros the boarder.  UMMM

Answer 5

Yes, it is illegal. It's ok for one-time trips where you HAVE to go pick someone up (been there, done that), but you definitely should not buy one with the intent of carrying family members.

Answer 6

If it has no seat beats then it is illegal to have people riding in the rear.

Answer 7

it is more safe to have seatbelts

Answer 8

If your passengers don't value their lives and you don't value their lives, sure.

In other word, not a good idea.
