age 1 to 12 must ride in the front
seat because:
My vehicle has no rear seat;

ride in the rear seat(s) whenever
possible, children ages 1 to 12

The child has a medical
condition which, according to the
child's physician, makes it
necessary for the child to ride in

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
belted, to hit the dashboard or
windshield in a crash.

Seats and Restraints
WARNING
If the right front passenger's
airbag is turned off for a person
who is not in a risk group
identified by the national
government, that person will not
have the extra protection of an
airbag. In a crash, the airbag will
not be able to inflate and help
protect the person sitting there.
Do not turn off the passenger's
airbag unless the person sitting
there is in a risk group.
