Legs will swing, but are likely to be too short to hit the seat in front. Also, children might be lightweight enough to be carried out.
+1 on that.
To be honest the most hazarded children are lap carried "infants" and their carriers. On the other hand it's still way safer for any distance than a car. All of this is risk-benefit or cost-benefit analysis.
