Question 7412

If, as an exception, we have to carry a baby in a child restraint system in the front seat, how must it be positioned?

  1. Facing rearward, with the airbag activated.
  2. Facing forward, with the airbag deactivated.
  3. Facing rearward, with the airbag deactivated.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: Facing rearward, with the airbag deactivated.

Facing rearward, like the baby in the image, with the front airbag for that seat deactivated. A rear-facing child seat is the safest for a baby. If the airbag remains active, it strikes the seat with great force when it inflates and can seriously injure the baby.
