Don't be. Every time I see some dumb *ss moron with a toddler on the
front seat I myself want to yell.
Children under the age of 12 are forbidden from occupying the front seat
in a number of European countries.
I remember how dad once got pulled over and fined for this. Since then I
was doing time in the back seat.

If this is true, it means that I can pull the baggy wheel off a new
(yellow-don't laugh!) A4TQ that I'll be buying next spring and replace
it with my beloved 350mm MOMO! Halleluiah!
