Check seatbelt-only fit?

She's quite tall for her age, but is the shoulder belt okay? They're not adjustable. The lap part fits well over her hip bones, knees bend at the edge with her back/butt positioned properly, feet on the floor.

She still has a Graco backless booster that fits, but of course she's really hoping to stop using it!

After 9.5 years of worry about proper carseats/boosters, this is new territory for us!

I think that shoulder fit is fine as long as she doesn't mess with it. That's how they fit me in the back seat, even adjusted down as far as it goes, and I'm 5'7".
