The Law on seats / seatbelts

see I googled about what the law was about seatbelts etc. and all it says is that everyone has to wear their seatbelts were fitted, couldn't find a law anywer which states about there has to be physical spongy seats there... but i suppose it's not the written law it's more what the police would think/say if pulled me over!
well there is no support really for the passengers if there are no seats, so even if they were wearing there seatbelts and there happened to be an accident they wouldn't be supported or like held in place like they would be by the seat. that's just my opinion though. if it isn't against the law i'm sure the police would find something to do you for, that's normally the case here anyway.
yeah, i know it'd be really unsafe, but that's all was wondering, whether if was pulled over i'd just get a telling off or a big fat fine or points or something.
but if you have no seats then that automatically means noone is allowed to sit there. Its the same with the buses which one have 2 front seats and the rest is storage room: noone is allowed to be in there whilst the vehicle is moving.
When you pulled out the seats to you car, you made it a 2 people carrying vehicle maximum!
thats what the police will tell you whilst they are writing your fat ticket

isn't there something in MOT about secure seat mounting but then if it's missing it can't be insecure
to be honest even if it wasn't it's not adviseable as a 15st 6ft lump of carbon flying about at 30-70mph is gonna do damage to itself and others if not securely seated

Yeah I'd never want to do it because it's really unsafe, but was just curious that's all!
Had a word with ex police guy who comes in to the pub I work at and he said it's definitly 100% illegal and basically said what you said Reuvers
