There is a little girl at my children's school who is 6.5 years old. She is TINY! Dad says she is still wearing size 3/4 pants/shirts and is about 28lbs. Mom has this child in a no back booster seat. Dad has child rear facing in a radian (mostly rf because dad say when she falls asleep her head slumps, plus she still fits so "hey why not"). Dad actually has no clue about the benefits of rf, he did this on his own so her head wouldn't slump finding a seat that fit her rf longer, installed properly, ect. Mom on the other hand is a problem. This child doesn't even meet the minimum requirements for a no back booster seat!
So, dad is upset with mom and wants the school to report her driving with his dd in a seat that she doesn't even weigh enough to sit in. He also gave a parent a disposable camera to try to take a picture of her with the child in the no back booster seat. I called the sheriff's department for the school and they basically said "while Ohio's laws have changed and no it isn't legal they still would have to catch mom on some other moving violation before they pulled her over". So, what exactly is the point of the new laws if the police can't pull the parents over because of mis use?
