Of course, children vary widely. And
while age may be one indicator of
when a child can safely ride in the
front, there are other important
factors you should consider.
Check that the child’s seat belt is
properly positioned and secured.
Have the child sit up straight, back
against the seat, and feet on or
near the floor.
Carefully read the owner’s manual
and make sure you understand all
seat belt instructions and all safety
information.
If you decide that a child can safely
ride up front, be sure to:
Physically, a child must be large
enough for the lap/shoulder belt to
properly fit over the hips, chest, and
shoulder (see pages
and
). If
the seat belt does not fit properly,
the child should not sit in the front.
To safely ride in front, a child must
be able to follow the rules, including
sitting properly and wearing the seat
belt properly throughout a ride.
Move the car seat to the rear-most
position.
Supervise the child. Even mature
children sometimes need to be
reminded to fasten the seat belts
or sit properly.
Remind the child not to lean
toward the door.
