Car Seats Laws in Los Angeles

[Administrator]

We are travelling to California next month. We wanted to know what are the Car Seat / Booster Seat Law Requirements for 7 year old kids in Los Angeles, California.

As of January 1, 2012, all children younger than eight years old, or under four feet and nine inches in height, must be secured in a car seat or booster. In addition, all kids younger than eight, must be secured in the back seat.
So that means they have to have a safety seat. The fines for not having it are 20 dollars for first offence and 50 for any subsequent offense.
I hope i helped.

Choose a convertible seat or combination seat/booster (some newer vehicles contain built-in safety seats and harnesses). Children may face forward after age one and 20 pounds. Children should sit upright with strap slots at or about shoulder level. Top strap slots must be used for most convertible seats and a top tether strap should be used, if possible.

Hmm, I agree with the above post completely, one must wear seat belt while driving a car. If you came across an accident and at that time if you not having seat belt then you may suffer from minor or any big injury. But that's nothing to worry you would get compensation for this, but its better to wear seat belt and have safe drive.
