This is opinion and should be treated as such:

You must check with each state, as the law varies from state to state. Check with the dept of motor vehicles or the local police/fire dept. I believe the minimum age in most states is 6 years old. Of course, that is for booster seats. My children started using booster seats at about age three. In my opinion, it is best to judge by the child's weight, not age, and choose a safety seat made for the weight of the child. I believe it has been recommended by safety experts that a child should be in a booster until a normal seat belt sits on them appropriately, about age 8. Of course, you should always follow the laws of the state in which you are driving and keep the child in a safety seat until they are past that age. Good Luck!

How does the car seat travel system work?

The car seat travel system basically is a car seat and a stroller. The car seat can be used either in the car (with the base provided) or in the stroller. The stroller fits both a car seat, when fitted facing backwards, and a larger child in the seat facing forwards. Travel systems give parents options at affordable prices. Many companies produce these travel systems, among them Graco and Britax.

If you drive with a child in the front seat and the car is equipped with an airbag you should?

If you have a child in the front seat of a car, you must ensure they are wearing a seat belt and that the airbag is connected. An unrestrained child without an airbag will be flung through the windshield in a crash and will die.The only exception to this is if you've got a baby in a rear-facing car seat strapped to the passenger seat. The baby seat must, without exception, be attached to the seat solidly, or the seat must be strapped to the seat in an approved manner. Then the airbag must be disconnected to prevent crush injuries in a crash.Urban myths have spread about airbags being dangerous. They are not, but not using a seatbelt is very dangerous; not using a seatbelt for your child is wanton neglect. For best results, strap your child into a car seat, fitted by professionals, on the rear seat of your car.
