A seat mount, to be used with a school bus restraint vest or harness that provides a means where the passenger seated in the restraint cannot easily remove himself or herself from the seat mount without the assistance of another individual. The upper attachment of the seat mount loops-through D-rings on the passenger's vest, and then returns and attaches to the backside of the seat, out of reach of the passenger. The straps of the upper attachment may also be independently adjusted after the seat mount is attached to the passenger wearing the vest. The lower attachment at the hips includes a deterrent in which the passenger cannot easily remove the snap hook from the D-ring. This is accomplished by using a metal O-ring that is slipped over the snap hook tongue preventing it from opening. These improvements to the upper and lower attachments of the seat mount inhibit a student from getting up from a school bus seat when the child is not permitted to do so, thus providing protection for the student, driver and other passengers on the school bus.
