I wouldn't feel comfortable towing my kids behind me like that. On the bike would be my preference.

DH and I were discussing this and we were thinking that the two kind might be safer because if you fall they won't go falling with you, the tow will stay stable.

My SIL is a pediatric Nurse practitioner in Hackensack University Medical Center's ER and she REFUSES to let anyone she knows get one of those little tow things, she has seen some bad accidents with those tow things involved, they are hard to see (for people diring in cars), the kids can move around too much, and she said it is just head traumas waiting to happen.
On the other hand, the seats in th eback can be VERY dangerous as well, i think you need to go in very low traffic neighborhoods if you use one of these seats, then you are probably safe, but I wiuld NEVER get the little buggy-thing, I hae geard too many horror stories

How about a jogging stroller Dree? Much safer.
