Is it legal to put a baby on the front seat of car in Illinois?

It is illegal to put a baby on the front seat of a car in Illinois, regardless of whether the airbag is off.

Here's why:

* Illinois law requires children under the age of 2 to ride in a rear-facing car seat. This is the safest position for infants and toddlers, as their necks and spines are still developing.

* Airbags can be dangerous for infants and toddlers. Even if the airbag is turned off, the force of the airbag deploying can cause serious injury or death to a small child.

The only exception to this rule is if the back seat is full of children who are all properly restrained in car seats. Even then, it's important to consult with a certified car seat technician to ensure the child is as safe as possible.

For more information, please refer to the Illinois Department of Transportation website. They provide detailed information about child passenger safety laws and requirements.
