If a child is to sit in the front of a car with an airbag, they MUST BE 80 POUNDS!!
no, its illegal
In order to have the right to sit in front you need to check with the laws of your own state. In most states they have guidelines on height, weight and age of the child. Remember an airbag can seriously harm a child, especially one that wears glasses, braces or other orthotics around the head. Think of the child's welfare rather than his or her cries to sit in front.
You should at least be about 5 ft or in your age you should be strong enough so the air bag does not cause and problems with the child's heatlh
The right front seat has weight sensors built in. If the computer senses 5 to 20 lbs it will turn on that light to tell you that the airbag is shut off. The reason it does this is if there is a child's car seat up there.
12 i think
A passenger air bag can be dangerous for a kid in a child seat. The cut off switch allows the airbag to be temporarily disconnected for the safety of a child passenger.
There is no certain age. You have to reach a certain height and weight so if you are under height and weight then you are more likely to have severe injuries from an airbag. Usually the weight is around 100 lbs and the height is around 5 feet.
Not. If the airbag goes off it will occupy the space where the baby used to be. Drive a different vehicle.
My umderstanding is that there is no law against children riding in the front seat of a car in NY. There are several requirments that children be "properly restrained" which varies by age and weight. However, there are no laws prohibiting a child of any age from riding in the front seat of a car.
not sure of exact age but if child is in a child seat it's a better idea to keep them in the back to avoid airbag injuries.
In Illinois, it is recommended that children under the age of 13 sit in the back seat of a vehicle whenever possible for safety reasons. This is to reduce the risk of injury from airbag deployment in case of a crash. If a child must sit in the front seat, ensure they are in an appropriate child restraint system based on their age, weight, and height.
The Ford focus does not come equipped with a passenger airbag on off switch. The airbag will not engage unless certain weight requirements are met.
