A child that is age 8 or younger and weighs no more than 80 pounds can use a booster seat in New Jersey. Children over the age 8 must use a seat belt.
Your child will need to be 4 foot 9 inches, no matter what the age.
the weight to sit in a booster seat is...40 pounds AND the age of 4 years, BUT preferably the child is longer.
The child's size is the factor here. If the seatbelt comes across their body like it does for you, then they do not need a booster seat. Sometimes, the child's weight is a factor, too. They should be at least 90 pounds in weight before they are allowed out of the booster seat.
jack.t and jesse.s both smell alot
I heard it was supposed to be by weight, not by height, but what do i know.....when they outgrow the carseat
The AAP instructs to go by height, not weight now (2010) -- a minimum height for a child's no longer needing a booster seat is four feet, nine inches. 4'9."
This is directly from the New Jersey drivers handbook. Children up to age eight or a weight of 80 pounds must ride in a federally approved safety booster seat in the rear seat of the vehicle. If there is no rear seat, the child must sit in the front seat secured by a safety booster seat. If you need more information the drivers handbook is at: http://www.state.nj.us/mvc/pdf/Licenses/Driver%20Manual/Chapter_3.pdf
a child can be at leaset 6 to 8 years of age it really doesnt depond on height or weight
As of December 1, 2001, New Jersey's child passenger safety law requires: Children up to age 8 or 80 pounds must ride in a safety or booster seat in the rear seat of the vehicle. If there is no back seat, the child must sit in the front seat secured by a safety or booster seat. Children under age 8 who weigh more than 80 pounds must wear a seat belt anywhere in the vehicle. Passengers age 8 to 18 (regardless of weight) must wear a seat belt anywhere inside the vehicle.
it should be aroung 6 years old
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.
The age that a child should use a car seat booster is when they are 2 years of age. Some kids need to use them a little bit earlier because weight and height has an effect on how earlier the kids need to use the booster seat.
The Safeguard Go is a child's hybrid car seat and booster seat in one. It has a 5 point harness to hold the child, up to 60 pounds. When the child outgrows the harness, they can use the booster with a regular lap seat belt up to 100 pounds of weight.
