California Law requires all children who are 6 years of age or less and weigh less than 60 pounds to be transported in a Child Restraint System. Anyone older or weighs more than that is allowed to sit in front. Now I am only talking about California. I don't know globally. But IMO, what is good for CA is good federally.

Does releasing pressure from the brake pedal result in a shift of weight to the front?

Yes, releasing pressure from the brake pedal can result in a shift of weight to the front of the vehicle. When the brakes are applied, weight is transferred to the front wheels due to inertia. When the brakes are released, this weight transfer is reversed, causing the vehicle's weight to shift back towards the rear. This dynamic is particularly noticeable during deceleration and acceleration phases in a vehicle's movement.
