Adult seat belts aren't designed for children because children are proportioned differently and their bones are still developing.
When travelling in a vehicle, children need to use the right car seat until they reach 135 centimetres tall or age 12. The type of car seat your child needs depends on their weight. Find out which seat your child needs.
