Default Side Airbag Light

So I've noticed recently that on the passenger seat, whenever anyone leans towards the door, on the side airbag, the side airbag light comes lights up on the dash. If I just push on it a little bit it will light up too. Is this normal? It doesnt seem to happen on the drivers seat. Not really a big deal, just wondering if this is common and something I should get checked out.

it-s a safety so that if there is a child sleeping there, the airbag doesn-t break their neck

Yep, it depends on the weight in the seat. I used to set off the light all da time.

My backpack that I take to work sets off that light.
