Child Passenger Safety
Make sure your child is always buckled in a car seat, booster seat, or seat belt that is appropriate for their age and size.
REAR-FACING CAR SEAT
Birth until age 2–4
Buckle children in a rear-facing car seat with a harness until they reach the maximum weight or height limit of their car seat.
Keep children rear-facing as long as possible. Never place a rear-facing car seat in the front seat. Front passenger air bags can injure or kill young children in a crash.
FORWARD-FACING CAR SEAT
After outgrowing rear-facing car seat and until at least age 5
When children outgrow their rear-facing car seat, they should be buckled in a forward-facing car seat with a harness and a top tether in the back seat until they reach the maximum weight or height limit of their car seat.
BOOSTER SEAT
After outgrowing forward-facing car seat and until seat belt fits properly
When children outgrow their forward-facing car seat, they should be buckled in a booster seat in the back seat until the seat belt fits properly without a booster seat.
