They can switch sides. They showed a demo of pulling into a parking space then driving straight out.

replyI routinely had 8+h drives in the rear-facing seat of my family's circa 1970 Plymouth Satellite station wagon growing up. Completely unsafe, and very boring, but I don't recall barfing.

replyYes but usually you know which seats will be rear-facing.
