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.
the child should be at least 9 to ride in the front seat
A 9 year old child can ride in the front seat of a car. It is important that they are buckled in and can sit still.
