It's all good until safety is a consideration
This exactly.
Bench seats are great for hanging out with afore mentioned dog and/or girl.
Bench seats are super shitty in any sort of side impact collision. There's nothing keeping you in place except your safety belt.
I mean, isn't that what the seat belt is for? I can't imagine the typical front seat in a modern car keeping you put in a collision either. They're definitely shaped comfort-first, and at best keep you from jostling around on uneven roads.
I think they're talking about sideways motion. Seat belts do their big part but the seat can stop you from going off one side when the belt presses you into it.
