Not too sure how safe it is since I have not had an accident since starting using this method but, I hook my strap over the headrest of the passenger seat then hook up the seat belt across the strap. Gives me relative quick access if needed.
If it was a child you could use a backwards child seat. Like the quick access.
Loved my time living in Stillwater. Had great seats at the football games and got to watch Barry Sanders! It was good to be an Okie for a couple of years.

I use an $8 soft thermal bag - Walmart, Sam's Club, BJ's, Costco - it keeps my 150-600 and D810 nice and cuddly-comfy - in the trunk, on the floor of the backseat/floor on the passenger side front seat, etc.

here's what I do, and as long as you have a strap on your camera, quick, easy, and probably pretty safe. I merely place the strap over the front car seat head rests so that the camera is hanging down off it and resting against the back of either of the front seats, and short of a rollover, it ain't going anywhere!

No strap on mine, hand grip.

Great ideas, but it seems like there is need for a product that isn't out there yet.

I use a large pillow behind the passenger seat in my SUV. I can reach right back while sitting in the driver seat ad grap the camera. It sinks into the pillow so sudden stops and movements cushion the camera(7Dll-100-400ll). 2 years and no problems. Can access the camera quickly and shoot from the car as not to miss anything.

If I'm alone, the camera goes on the passenger seat, and the camera seat buckled.

My two gadgets are the floor of the back seat or the camera bag on either the floor of the back seat or the back seat. Sometimes the trunk. 
Sometimes it's too simple.

I carry mine on th floor of the back seat; I have never had a problem, no matter how quickly I might stop. If I contemplate using it often, I carry it beside me between my leg and the center console, never a problem with that, either.

You can find bags of dried cherry pits which conform to a lot of shapes, place on floor behind the drivers seat, or possibly put a camera strap on & drape it over the seat head rest with the camera body behind the drivers seat
