A child has to be four - six years of age before being able to ride without a booster. It is weight dependant and most booster seats will tell you the maximum weight or age on the packaging.
If your talking about the booster seat without a back then NO, It is not safe for the child to ride with only a lap belt.
in all states a child has to be 4foot nine to be out of a booster seat. they can be in a booster sear at any age.
at age five
No, even though the kid is tAll there is still a big danger risk. They should always be in a booster or carseat.
The Booster offers safe, comfortable rides for someones child. Moving from a car seat to a booster seat still helps the child remain safe, while riding comfortably in the booster seat.

I belive the standard is the same in all states, and it goes by height and weight. I remember seeing those booster seat commercials and it was a rediculus heing like 4' 9" to ride without a booster, I would want to double check that answer though because it has been awhile since I have seen it.
I'm not aware of laws in Florida, but the decision to cite a driver for a minor offence such as that is usually at the discression of the officer making the stop.
In Florida all infants up toe the age of 16 have to be seated in the rear of the car.
