I was just looking for the wording of our child restraint laws. I have never been clear on whether a bpb counts for the 4 &/or 40 laws. I found a site that lists laws for all states, but says it is as of 2006. Look what Tennessee said:
Notwithstanding the provisions of § 55-9-603, any person transporting any child, one (1) through three (3) years of age weighing greater than twenty pounds (20 lbs.), in a motor vehicle upon a road, street or highway of Tennessee is responsible for the protection of the child and properly using a child passenger restraint system in a forward facing position, meeting federal motor vehicle safety standards in the rear seat if available or according to the child safety restraint system or vehicle manufacturer's instructions.
They require that the child be in a forward-facing seat? I hope that has been changed.
