What I see lacking in all of these pictures is a bar or high footrest in front of the passenger for the passenger to hang onto or push back with. This would not need to be a bar clear across in front of the passenger. Just a grab handle curved around in front of the passenger maybe 8 inches or a little more coming from the arm rest for the passenger to grab is all that is needed. Think about sitting in a car or pickup. Our feet are more in front of us instead of straight down with the knees at 90 degrees like we are in a buddy seat. I have been the passenger on a couple of those wide seats and I have felt like I would be pitched forward off the tractor if it slowed down fast. Another thing I have found through the use of auto steer in a modern tractor is the torso muscles have to work harder to keep the body braced against motion if I don't grip a steering wheel in front of me. As a driver we don't realize how much we are using our arms to keep our body from pitching forward. I would not recommend a seat belt on a tractor with no rollover protection.
