Occupant Protection

Occupant Protection Seat Belts

Occupant Protection You may not operate your vehicle on public roads and on private property, such as public parking lots, unless you and all of your passengers eight years of age or older, or children who are 4 feet 9 inches tall or taller are in a federally-approved child passenger restraint system.

Occupant Protection You and all passengers must wear a seat belt or, you and/or your passenger(s) may be cited. If the passenger is under 16 years of age, you may be cited if he or she is not wearing his or her seat belt.

Occupant Protection Always use your seat belts (including the shoulder harness) even if the vehicle is equipped with air bags.

Occupant Protection Even if you wear only a lap belt when driving, your chances of living through a collision are twice as high as someone who does not wear a lap belt. If you wear a lap and shoulder belt, your chances are three to four times higher to live through a collision.

Child Restraint System and Safety Seats Any child who is under the age of eight years and who is less than 4 feet 9 inches tall, must be secured in a federally-approved child passenger restraint system and ride in the back seat of a vehicle.

A medical reason requires the child to ride in the front seat. A child who is under the age of eight years and who is less than 4 feet 9 inches tall, may ride in the front seat of a vehicle only in the following instances: There is no rear seat or the rear seats are either side-facing jump seats or rear-facing seats. The child passenger restraint system cannot be properly installed in the rear seat. All rear seats are already occupied by children under the age of 12 years. A medical reason requires the child to ride in the front seat.

Occupant Protection A child may not ride in the front seat of an airbag-equipped vehicle if the child: Is less than one year of age. Weighs less than 20 lbs. Is riding in a rear-facing child passenger restraint system.

Occupant Protection Children under eight years of age, who are less than 4 feet 9 inches tall must be properly secured in an appropriate child passenger restraint system that meets federal safety standards

Occupant Protection However, children under eight years of age, who are 4 feet 9 inches tall or taller may be secured with an appropriate safety belt instead of a child passenger restraint system.

Riding Safely With Air Bags The biggest risk is being too close to the air bag. An air bag needs about 10 inches of space to inflate. Ride at least 10 inches (measured from the center of the steering wheel to your breastbone) from the air bag cover

Unattended Children In Motor Vehicles It is never a good idea to leave a child unattended in a vehicle. It is illegal to leave a child six years or younger unattended in a motor vehicle.

Occupant Protection The child may be left under the supervision of a person 12 years of age or older.

As stated in the "Unattended Children in Motor Vehicles" section above, it is against the law to leave unattended minor children in a vehicle (CVC §5620). Additionally, and equally important, it is dangerous and deadly to leave children and/or animals in a hot vehicle. One Decision (Child Safety Film - Vehicular Heatstroke) - YouTube
