It's a lot safer to put the baby's carseat on the side, because if you slam on the breaks, your baby will not slam onto the windshield if his/or hers seat beat is loose.

Above answer is a little wrong....

Its safest for your carseat to go in the center. That is the farthest point from any impact. However, there are times that that does not work. And if that is the case, then its best outboard. Your child's carseat should NEVER EVER be loose. If it is then it is not installed correctly. And that is a whole nother danger all in itself. The front seats are not going to protect him/her.

No, the first answer is a LOT wrong (besides the mispelling). An infant seat NEVER goes in the front seat if there is an airbag. Even without an airbag, the back seat is still safer, and the center position offers the most protection.

Why a backward facing car seat is safer for an infant a forward facing car seat during a collision or abrupt stop?

Its safer for the seat to be facing backwards, because during a collision or an abrupt stop the infant would not be able to slip out of the car seat, and also so the infant will not choke on the car seat's seat belt. It is also safer to have an infant/child to be sitting in the back seat and not in the front passenger seat until the recommended age.
