May children use a rear-facing restraint installed in the passenger seat if that seat is protected by a front airbag?

  1. No, unless the front airbag has been deactivated.
  2. Only on short trips.
  3. Yes, because the front airbag protects them.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: No, unless the front airbag has been deactivated.

If a child rides in the front in a rear-facing seat and the car has a front airbag, the airbag must be deactivated. It does not matter whether it is turned off by hand or automatically.
