That is correct!
It's open container laws which prohibit passengers from having open alcoholic beverages in the vehicle. Zero tolerance laws mean that no amount of alcohol is allowed in the driver's system, and this is typically applied only to people under the legal drinking age.
Zero tolerance laws typically prohibit the possession and use of alcoholic beverages by drivers and vehicle occupants under the age of 21. These laws aim to reduce underage drinking and enhance road safety by imposing strict penalties on those who violate these regulations. The intent is to discourage alcohol consumption among young individuals before they reach the legal drinking age.
Whether passengers may ride in a trailer or not is subject to varying by state laws, but, generally, most states prohibit it. Even in states which don't, it's a very ill-advised thing to do - unlike the tow vehicle, which is reinforced to protect the occupants in the event of a crash or rollover, a trailer is not, and offers no protection to occupants in such an event.

In a head on collision, they will be thrown forward in each vehicle.

due cause
The crash was fatal for all occupants of the vehicle.
In fatal crashes, approximately 75% of passenger car occupants who were completely ejected from the vehicle were killed. This high fatality rate highlights the extreme dangers associated with ejection during a crash, emphasizing the importance of seatbelt use and other safety measures to keep occupants secured within the vehicle.
At the moment of impact in a vehicle collision, unbelted occupants continue to move at the vehicle's original speed due to inertia. When the vehicle suddenly decelerates, these occupants can be violently thrown forward, potentially leading to severe injuries or ejection from the vehicle. This lack of restraint means they are at a higher risk of colliding with the interior of the vehicle or being thrown out of it entirely. The impact forces can result in traumatic injuries, including head trauma and internal injuries.
