"
Vehicle has no rear seat;
"
Vehicle has a rear seat too small to accommodate a rear- facing infant seat;
or
"
The infant has a medical condition which, according to the infant's physician,
makes it necessary for the infant to ride in the front seat so that the driver
can constantly monitor the child's condition.
Child age 1 to 12. A child age 1 to 12 must ride in the front seat because:
"
Vehicle has no rear seat:
"
Although children ages 1 to 12 ride in the rear seat(s) whenever possible,
children ages 1 to 12 sometimes must ride in the front because no space is
available in the rear seat(s) of vehicle; or
"
The child has a medical condition which, according to the child's physician,
makes it necessary for the child to ride in the front seat so that the driver can
constantly monitor the child's condition.
Medical condition. A passenger has a medical condition which according to his
or her physician:
"
Causes the passenger airbag to pose a special risk for the passenger: and
"
Makes the potential harm from the passenger airbag in a crash greater than the
potential harm from turning off the airbag and allowing the passenger, even if

The SRS airbags are designed to deploy
in severe
where the magnitude and duration of
the forward deceleration of the vehicle
exceeds the designed threshold level.
The SRS airbags will deploy if the severi-
ty of the impact is above the designed
threshold level, comparable to an approxi-
mate 25 km/h (15 mph) collision when the
vehicle has the impact straight into a fixed
barrier that does not move or deform.
However, this threshold velocity will be
considerably higher if the vehicle strikes
an object, such as a parked vehicle or
sign pole, which can move or deform on
impact, or if the vehicle is involved in an
underride collision
which the front of the vehicle "underrides",
or goes under, the bed of a truck, etc.).
It is possible that in some collisions
where the forward deceleration of the ve-
hicle is very close to the designed thresh-
old level, the SRS airbags and front seat
belt pretensioners may not activate togeth-
er.
Always wear your seat belts properly.
