must always ride in a rearward-facing
Child Restraint System. There are dif-
ferent types of rearward-facing Child

Booster seats
A booster seat is Child Restraint
System designed to improve the fit of
the vehicle’s seat belt system.A boost-
er seat positions the seat belt so that it
fits properly over the stronger parts of
your child’s body.Keep your children in
booster seats until they are big
enough to fit in a seat belt properly.
For a seat belt to fit properly, the lap
belt must lie comfortable across the
upper thighs, not the stomach. The
shoulder belt should lie comfortable
across the shoulder and chest and
not across the neck or face. Children
under age 13 must always be proper-
ly restrained to minimize the risk of
injury in an accident, sudden stop or
sudden maneuver.

as children fit within the height and
weight limits allowed by the Child
