Interesting! According to that link, the current law is something (harness or booster) until 8 or 80 pounds. The new law would specify RF until age 2 or 30 pounds, harnessed until age 4 or 40 pounds, and then harnessed or boostered until age 8 or 57 inches.
Would this be the first state to legislate longer RF?
I think it's great. This particular radio station and its listeners tend to be more toward the keep the government out of my life point of view no matter what the issue. The host who posted this is the overnight guy, so if he talked about it, I don't know how the callers responded and what he thought about it as I rarely listen to him. I'll have to see if the daytime hosts talk about it today while I'm in the car, and see what the callers are saying.
I am so torn on legislating parenting choices, safety, and our day to day lives. However, since we already do have these types of laws, I'd rather they be good ones!
Ha Nj101.5??? I do like them and I agree with govt getting out of our lives as a whole but I do believe children should be protected from the stupidity of their parents if they can not seem to participate in the basic safety issues.
I don't think any of the states specifically say that a child must be harnessed to 6. Some kids are okay at 4, Some aren't until 8.
Out of curiosity, which states require a harnessed seat till age 8? We might be unintentionally violating that while passing through!
