Larger Children
Children who have outgrown child restraints should
wear the vehicle’s safety belts.
If
you have the choice, a child should sit next to a
window
so
the child can wear a lap-shoulder belt and
get the additional restraint
a
shoulder belt
can
provide.
Accident statistics show that children
are
safer if they
are restrained
in
the rear seat. But they need to use the
safety
belts properly.
