The law on child car booster seats has changed – so where in Huddersfield can you buy a safe, legal seat at a good price?
Failure to fit your car with a legally compliant booster seat could put your child’s safety at risk and result in a fine.
What is the law now?
UK law states that children must use a child car seat until they’re 12 years old or 135cm (4ft 5in) tall, whichever comes first.
But safety experts recommend you use a child car seat for all children under 150cm (4ft 11in).
For children weighing more than 36kg (5st 10lb) but under 150cm (4ft 11in) it is advised to go by height.
Visit the government website to get a more detailed description of the new laws.
