Child car seat law

morning all,

just looking for clarification on this. Is it okay for me to carry my 4 year old in the front passenger seat in his car seat?

just looking on childcarseats.org.uk which seems to state that you can but just want to double check.

thanks
If your lucky enough to be irish, your lucky enough ;)

    This may help

    Also dft.gov.uk .

    Or as your user name suggests the law in NI.

    Yes you can. It is not recommended if an air bag is fitted but if you must then the car seat should be slid fully rear wards to minimise the risk of injury from the airbag.
