Don't get into an accident with a passenger in your car? 
I'm guessing worst case scenario your going to have to fool the SRS system into thinking there is someone in the seat (rewiring the wires that came from the switch within the seat) however, fooling with SRS wires isn't usually advised.

You should be able to bypass the pressure-sensitive switch wiring so the passenger airbag will always be on. However you should bear in mind that in the event of a an accident where both bags deploy and there is no front seat passenger, your insurance company might refuse to pay for the passenger airbag since it would not have gone off had you not modded the car.
