So we have new guidelines, but it's not the law. In CA it's 12 and 20 and no car seat after 6 years old. How long before we can expect the laws to be changed to reflect the new NHTSA and AAP guidelines?
DS is 6 and in K and some parents are foregoing car seats. We've had 2 playdates and both boys said they didn't need to ride in our booster seat as they're 6. I told them they had to as my seatbelts won't fit them and I was not taking the booster seat out of the car. It's a Parkway.
If we got a 4'9" law, it would be fabulous. DS will stay in a booster and his best friend's aunt is a car safety researcher, so he's going to be in a booster just as long, except he's much taller and will hit 4'9" before DS does.
Just wondering how long before the law catches up.
