Question

Is it legal for a child to sit in the front passenger seat, if a car is only a two seat sportscar?

Answer 1

Yes it is legal but depending on the child's age you will need to make sure that they are either using their seat-belts or car-seat if needed.

Answer 2

Yes, if the child has a seatbelt on, and is not the size child that should be in a car seat.

Answer 3

it depens how old the child is. I believe the child has to be 14 to sit in ANY passenger seat.

Answer 4

Of course it is. What are they gonna do? Have you strap the child to the roof? LOL   Sorry. Yes it is legal. Hopefully there is an option to turn off the airbag if so equipped.

Answer 5

What about the air bag hitting and possibly killing the child?

Answer 6

probably...where else would the child sit? In the trunk?On the roof?

Answer 7

I had that problem and I called the DMV and they said that it was not the law but they did not recommend it. Especially if there is a air bag.I don't know what state you live in so you might call your DMV.
