I would certainly be up for having a practice. I do always read the instructions and look a the door when I am in an exit row seat.

In this particular instance there were plenty of empty exit row seats (3 out of the 6 were unoccupied) so certainly no ulterior motive in my comment. Do we trust people in the exit rows to be suitable? If not, is there any better way of ensuring folks in the exit rows are suitable?
