My granddaughter is 5 approx. 65 lbs and uses a booster seat in our sedan. I can find no reference to the law on letting her ride in the front seat of my truck on a booster seat (air bag off). The law states rules using term “vehicle”.

Northendbratt, no your not by yourself, as I’ve stated, I, most of the time, report them, it breaks my heart, to even imagine what a parent would go through mentally, but then some wouldn’t do anything but blame others instead of themselves, I’ve also seen a man driving with 3 kids in a single cab truck, knowing the dangers & it wasn’t a young man either but he wasn’t really old either, so he knew better, one of the kids is prolly kindergarten age sitting on one of other kids lap, but yet can tell others what to do & acts like he does no wrong or his other family

This bothers me,when I take my ten year old granddaughter to school or pick her up, she sits in the back seat of our full size king cab pickup because I have a fear of the air bag, NO exceptions. However, there are people with toddlers riding not in a car seat, hanging out of the windows. There are troppers around the school trying to catch speeders,am I the only one to see this?

Boy have things changed I can remember many times laying down across the back dash on dads old Plymouth going on a road trip because my brothers have the seat took up or riding in the truck bed of dads old ford. We go to extremes to protect our children, but I wish we thought the same when it comes to what kind of country and legacy we leave for them I’m afraid they will have it worse than we have. Children are an heritage of the Lord.

My g’daughter is almost 10 years old, and I thought this was law already! She has always been in a car seat or booster seat until age and height and weight appropriate.

Almost 100% of the time our kids are in their car seats although I can think of maybe 2 no more than 3 times we’ve actually had to use a seatbelt for our 4 yr old like when 1 parent took wrong vehicle, not thinking, only went to pick kid up from school & straight home & baby getting sick in their car seat & then putting it in other car seat & putting 4 yr old in seat belt but if something had happened I still would have to say its my fault, I feel sad & mad every time I see lil ones not in car seats, most of the time I report them, you can sometimes tell when adults are to sure of themselves that it happens a lot for them.
