manhattan mom Posted April 11, 2006 #1 Share Posted April 11, 2006 hi - my family is cruising on the norwegian spirit on april 30th out of nyc and am wondering if anyone knows if there are seat belts on the buses and/or vans which transport people to/from destinations for shore excursions. specifically, we are contemplating the cocoa beach shuttle (at port canaveral stop) and the ardastra zoo (in nassau). i ask b/c my son is only 3 and we plan on bringing a booster seat, but i need a seat belt in which to strap it for it to work. thanks manhattan mom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cotton Posted April 12, 2006 #2 Share Posted April 12, 2006 I, personally, have never seen any vehicles on any island that had any type safety features. Obviously, they aren't as aware as we Americans are of the safety issues. OR, it could be because they don't have super highways like we do...?:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PAISANO Posted April 12, 2006 #3 Share Posted April 12, 2006 I agree with cotton, I too have never seen any seat belts. You might want to try a private taxi? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cotton Posted April 12, 2006 #4 Share Posted April 12, 2006 I've never seen seat belts in taxis, either. So much for that idea. Some of those taxi drivers in MX go so fast, I've slid all over the back seat of a taxi.:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CruisinGrams Posted April 13, 2006 #5 Share Posted April 13, 2006 We did take some of out own shore excursions in Mexico by taxi and they did have seatbelts but they were kind of stuck in the back of the seats. I have never seen seatbelts on tour buses. They don't even have seatbelts on our school bus that carry children everyday and that isn't considered a third world country. I think you could contact the local taxi company or the local tourist site for the best idea regarding the seatbelts in cabs. These countries just don't have the laws like we do either. And, they drive like nuts all over the Caribbean not just Mexico. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
