Vehicle Safety, Documents & TowingStandalone practice
A child is 7 years old and 55 inches tall in an ordinary passenger car. No statutory exception applies. What restraint is required?
Correct answer: A child passenger restraint, secured according to its instructions.
Why
A child under eight must use a properly secured child passenger restraint unless the child is more than 57 inches tall or a specific statutory exception applies. Exactly 57 inches does not meet the height exception. Follow the restraint manufacturer’s instructions. Children under 13 who no longer need a child restraint must use the required properly adjusted safety belt.
