As your child gets older, they may start asking when they can sit in the front seat and feel a little more grown-up. But when it comes to car safety, their well-being always comes first.

So, what do the experts say?

While legal age requirements vary by state, the American Academy of Pediatrics recommends that children 12 and under ride in the back seat. Even then, safety remains a priority—make sure your child:

✅ Wears their seatbelt properly
✅ Keeps their feet on the floor
✅ Uses a booster seat if the shoulder belt doesn’t fit correctly

Keeping kids safe on the road is always the top priority! 🚗💺
