Positioning of baby car seat

Question

[b] [/b] I was wondering whether you could say on which side one should preferably install a baby car seat. Should it be behind the driver or behind the passenger? My question is based on my perception that side collisions probably occur more on one side of the car because of, blind spots exposure to traffic coming from the opposite side etc. [b]

Answer

The best place for a baby chair is determined by two things: a) The type of seat (some are forward facing and some are rear facing), and b) Whether you have airbags in the front. Rear seat behind front passenger is the best.
