Legal age for minor to ride in front seat of a car in California?

Answer 1

Actually, in California it's:

Children must ride properly buckled up, in the back seat, in a safety seat or booster until they are at least 6 years old OR weigh at least 40 lbs.

Main exceptions:

- A child under age 6 who weighs over 40 lbs. may wear a lap-only belt in the back seat if the vehicle has no shoulder belts in the back seat.

- A child under age 6 who weighs less than 60 lbs. may ride in the front seat if there is no forwardfacing rear seat in the vehicle; the child restraint cannot be properly installed in a rear seat; all rear seats are occupied by other children under age 12; or for medical reasons. An infant (riding in a rear-facing child restraint or under one year or less than 20 lbs.) may not ride in front if there is an

active passenger air bag.

So if the child is older than 6 or weighs more than 40 pounds, or meets one of the exceptions, they can ride in the front seat.
