Kubota chose to add the roll bar to consumer mowers, not the government. It is held on by 4 accessible bolts. To add it for commercial or employer sales is a minor deal.
There are many things to cause a roll over (although, unlikely) and a roll bar would be good to have in place. However, roll bars are much more likely to CAUSE an accident.
My attention will be focused on staying safe and the roll bar is the first to go. And yes, the seat belt is a hazard.
Its dangerous either way with, or without it. You can snag a limb with it, and flip, or roll down a hill, and get crushed without it.
