Right now the law says children under 10 aren't allowed in the front.
Unfortunately it's all ignorance. Children 10 and under need either proper safety seats or booster seats and seat belts.
Maybe they should publicize figures, photos, etc of what happens to children in accidents.
What also worries me is the increase in car safety means more and more cars have side and head protection airbags in the rear. An exploding airbag next to a child can cause serious injury even when they're strapped in.
Car and airbag manufacturers recommend drivers keep their hands away from the center of the steering wheel during an accident and an airbag deploying.
Enact a law and enforce it.

Very difficult to do, me thinks.
