Can an 11 year old legally ride in the front seat of a car in Texas?

What is the law in Michigan for children riding in front seat?

A child must be 11 and above to sit in the front seat. Any child under the weight of 75 lbs should be in the back seat. If you are under the age of eight you should be in the back seat with a booster seat. If your car does not have a back seat, then your child should still sit in the front but still with a booster seat. You should also get your air-bag de-activated if you need a child to sit in the front that is under the age of 11. However, you should read your car's owner's manual as well. Some vehicles automatically turn off the airbag AND seat belt tensioner if the weight in the seat is under 66 pounds. Therefore, the seat belt would not work in an accident and it would be unsafe to ever have a live person even with booster seat in the front if the total weight is under 66 lbs. This is just one example from our Mazda 3. Your vehicle may have a different weight limit and may or may not shut off the seat belt tensioner if the passenger's weight is under the specified limit.

What are the Florida laws for carseats for a two year old?

The state of Florida encourages parents to keep children and toddlers between 1-4 years of age riding in a harnessed car seat for as long as possible. Sometimes the child will outgrow the car seat, but as long as the child's weight and height allow them to remain in the car seat, Florida encourages parents to keep their children riding safely in it. However, after the age of 2, Florida law does not explicitly require children to remain in car seats.
