If you decide that a child can safely
ride up front, be sure to:
Carefully read the owner’s manual,
and make sure you understand all
seat belt instructions and all safety
information.
Move the vehicle seat to the rear-
most position.
Have the child sit up straight, back
against the seat, and feet on or
near the floor.
This could result in
serious neck injuries during a crash.
This could cause
very serious injuries during a crash.
It also increases the chance that the
child will slide under the belt in a
crash and be injured.
If they do, they could
be very seriously injured in a crash.
Devices intended to improve a
child’s comfort or reposition the
shoulder part of a seat belt can make
the belt less effective and increase
the chance of serious injury in a
crash.
Of course, children vary widely. And
while age may be one indicator of
when a child can safely ride in the
front, there are other important
factors you should consider.
To safely ride in front, a child must
be able to follow the rules, including
sitting properly, and wearing the seat
belt properly throughout a ride.
Physically, a child must be large
enough for the lap/shoulder belt to
properly fit (see page ). If the seat
belt does not fit properly, with or
without the child sitting on a booster,
the child should not sit in the front. Supervise the child. Even mature
children sometimes need to be
reminded to fasten the seat belts
or sit properly.
Check that the child’s seat belt is
properly and securely positioned.

Do not let a child put the shoulder
part of a seat belt behind the back or
under the arm.
Two children should never use the
same seat belt.
Do not put any accessories on a seat
belt.
