Right. I had a Air compressor come crashing thru the backwindow
of a pickup truck once. Without the window/cab that it hit, there
would have been some dead people. If your not going to anchor the
seat back don't even think of hauling anything back there. The
objects will become projectilies at the passengers if you have to
spike the brakes.
