Do you need seatbelts ..if seats are rear facing?

i have a renault espace ,in which the 5 rear seats can be setup to face each other..3 (middle ones)rear facing do you need to wear seat belts in rear facing seats

Answers:
Legally. yes. If in an accident any official or insurance company would assume that no matter the position of the seats the passengers would still be at risk by the unstable status of the vehicle and I assume the same. Also I don't know anything about you vehicle, but it sounds like more of a risk of danger if in an accident you are facing each other. If it didn't come with seatbelts you should purchase some just in case you get pulled over
no
if it has
then yes
yes of course you do
urrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr. yes!!!!!!!!
No, it's OK. When you crash you'll just send the rear-facing passengers through the boot window instead of the windscreen.
Yes you do, but even if you didnt why would you risk someones life by not wearing one
Yes. Absolutely you need seat belts when seated in a rear facing position.
Imagine the result of your body movement in a rear end collision.
If you are hit from the rear your body will stay relatively moving at the same speed while the vehicle you are in will accelerate due to the imapct. Whatever is facing you in your rear seated position is and obstruction that you will most definetly colide with. If you are in the rear of a station wagon, or van, you may have the very undesireable result of being ejuect through the rear glass or door.

Practically speaking, imagine a soccer ball covered in water and then kick it. The water (your body) will stay relatively in place while the ball will accelerate away as the vehicle would if rear ended.
Why don't you call the local police instead of asking us? And if you need to know now, then tell everyone to buckle up. Better safe then sorry.
no you dont
Yes. Vehicles are hit from all angles
