I have no idea where to put this thread sorry!

Today I called up for a taxi to see if we could get one with 2 car seats. I was told there was a really long wait for any with even 1 car seat. Then they told me that I can sit the kids on our laps, with the seat belt around both of us I told them, no, the kids are 3.5 and 1.5yrs and they told me that was ok. I was told in QLD it is ok to sit kids on your lap IN THE SAME SEAT BELT if there is no baby seat. WTF! Is this right? Are you kidding me???? I said no thanks of course.

Surely that can't be right, can it? Unbelievable.
