Explanation
In passenger vehicles, all children under age 13 should ride buckled up in the rear seat, as it is the safest place in most vehicles. Airbag deployment in the front seat can cause serious injury or even death to young children who sit too close. To ensure their safety, drivers must make sure that every child is properly restrained with a seat belt or an appropriate child safety system based on the child's height and weight.
