    Speak Up! - View Question #28


    printer friendly version

    Question: What is the legal age that a child can be to be able to ride in a car with an adult seat belt on. Not a car seat?

    Answer: Arizona Law (ARS 28-907) requires that children under the age of 5 be properly secured in a child passenger restraint system, meaning a car seat.

    However, several studies have shown that regular seatbelts do not adequately protect children in the event of an accident. Many auto parts stores sell devices that attach to a regular seatbelt and allow you to adjust the belt to better fit your child. and these are generally under $20.

    This law does NOT stink! Dead children from irresponsible parent drivers stinks! Many parents don't think to protect their kids in the car, and this law makes them think about it! I only wish that they enforced this law more!
