I think they have to go in the back. Also if allowed in the front be careful with where the airbags are fitted.

As far as I am aware, they can only go in the front as babies when they are in the rear-facing carry seats like THIS one (with airbag disabled). Otherwise they have to be in the back.

Hi,
I presume taxis have an exemption from baby car seats. What is the law regarding infants in private vehicles.

Regards Mike.
