If a child who uses a booster seat

must ride in front, move the vehicle

seat as far back as possible and be

sure the child is wearing the seat

belt properly.

A child may continue using a booster

seat until the tops of their ears are

even with the top of the vehicle’s or

booster’s seat-back. A child of this

height should be tall enough to use

the lap/shoulder belt without a

booster seat.

The National Highway Traffic Safety

Administration and Transport

Canada recommend that all children

aged 12 and under be properly

restrained in a back seat.

If the passenger’s front airbag

inflates in a moderate to severe

frontal collision, the airbag can cause

serious injuries to a child who is

unrestrained, improperly restrained,

sitting too close to the airbag, or out

of position.

A side airbag also poses risks. If any

part of a larger child’s body is in the

path of a deploying side airbag, the

child could receive possibly serious

injuries.

Of course, children vary widely. And

while age may be one indicator of

when a child can safely ride in front,

there are other important factors you

should consider.

Physically, a child must be large

enough for the lap/shoulder belt to

properly fit (see pages and ). If

the seat belt does not fit properly,

with or without the child sitting on a

booster seat, the child should not sit

in front.

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.
