We have recently bought a smart car and would like our 4 year old to occasionally travel in it. The garage advised us that as long as our son was facing forward in the car this would be OK with the air bag still on.
Other web sites have said that children shouldn't travel with air bags untill they are 12.
We could have a switch fitted but this would cost us £150. The seat can be pushed back along way and the air bag would probably never reach him.
Does any one out there know the absolute definate rules about this??
