Still not understanding what would be easier, to have to climb all the way through the car to get the child out from behind the driver's seat if entering through the right side of vehicle(passenger side) or to simply open the door and have the child sitting immediately infront of you on the passenger side. Either way, like I said it is a personal decision, just a differing view point.
