Larger Children Must Wear Seatbelts
Ladyman Announces Date for New ChildRestraint and Seat Belt Laws
DfT Press Release
17 July 2006
From 18 September parents will have to make sure that with very
few exceptions children up to 4' 5" in height use the relevant
child car seats or boosters in cars, vans and other goods
vehicles. I expect that the police will seek to educate as well as
enforce, but ultimately parents face being fined if they don't
comply with the new rules.
