Summary
California has updated its child booster seat law to improve safety, with penalties of up to $490 for drivers who fail to restrain children properly. Under the change, effective in 2027, officers will use a five-step test—assessing how a child sits and how the seatbelt fits—to determine whether a child aged 8–16 still needs a booster seat. If any step fails, the driver can be fined. The goal is to ensure children remain in booster seats until a seatbelt fits correctly, reducing the risk of injury in crashes, since adult seatbelts don’t always protect smaller bodies effectively.
