Occupant ProtectionStandalone practice
A child is over 18 kg, has outgrown the forward-facing seat, and does not yet fit the vehicle's lap-and-shoulder belt properly. What does Alberta recommend?
An empty forward-facing child seat with a harness is shown. The cards state that the seat has been outgrown, the child is over 18 kg, and the vehicle belt does not yet fit.
Correct answer: Use a booster seat suited to the child, following its instructions
Why
A booster uses the vehicle's lap-and-shoulder belt, keeping the lap portion low on the hips and the shoulder portion across the chest. Alberta recommends a booster until the adult belt fits; boosters are not a separate mandatory requirement under Alberta law.
