Safe drivingQuestion 321 of 328

A child has outgrown a forward-facing car seat. The child is under age eight, weighs 18 to 35 kilograms and is under 145 centimetres tall. What seat does the child need?

  1. A booster seat
  2. An adult seatbelt only
  3. A rear-facing child car seat
  4. A lap belt only
Show answer

Correct answer: A booster seat

A booster raises the child so the adult belt works better. Use it with a lap and shoulder belt.
