A three-year-old has outgrown the manufacturer’s rear-facing limit but remains within the forward-facing harness limits. How should the child ride in an ordinary passenger car?

Correct answer: In a forward-facing seat with an internal harness.

Why

A child at least two who has reached the rear-facing height or weight limit uses a forward-facing restraint with an internal harness until that restraint’s limits are reached. A booster is for a child at least four who has outgrown the forward-facing limits. Follow the manufacturer’s instructions, use the more protective applicable category, and place children younger than 13 in the rear seat when available. The statute has specified vehicle, medical and emergency exceptions.
