Can a 6yr old use a booster seat in the front of a vehicle that has airbags (uk)?

trying to find the proper advice is a minefield as many site contradict each other.

NO, not if it has front airbags that can't be deactivated. One going off will kill a child in a booster seat. If your not sure put it in the back to be safe.

Only if you can turn off the airbag. Some cars have a switch for this.

Under the new regulations any children that are older than three and younger than twelve, but shorter than 4'5" or 135cm must use a child seat or a booster cushion to travel in a car.

For passengers over 5' (150cms) who possess an adult bone structure, the best option is an adult seat belt - but smaller children must use car seats and boosters to be safe - they are there to put the child in the right position to benefit from the full protection provided by the adult seat belt.

The new rules also concern the transportation of babies - rear facing baby seats must not be used in front passenger seats when airbags are fitted, unless the airbags have been deactivated.
