A 6-year-old child has outgrown the harnessed car seat. How must the child ride in your car under Vermont law?
Correct answer: In a booster seat, because the child is under 8.
Why
Vermont law sets steps for child restraints: under 2, a rear-facing seat with a harness; under 5, a rear-facing or forward-facing seat with a harness; under 8, a booster seat if the child is not in a harnessed seat; and under 18, at least a safety belt. Children under 13 should ride in a back seat when practical.
