It’s Child Passenger Safety Week, Sept. 20-26

Texas requires that EVERYONE riding in a vehicle buckle up and children younger than 8 MUST be secured in a child safety seat or booster (unless taller than 4’9″).

Also, the American Academy of Pediatrics recommends all children ride in a child safety seat until the vehicle seat belt fits properly, typically when they have reached 4’ 9” in height AND are 8 to 12 years of age.
