Extends the requirement for children to be secured in child restraint systems in motor vehicles.

This bill amends the law to require children under eight years of age to be secured in a rear-facing child restraint system until they reach the age of two or exceed the manufacturer's height and weight limits. It also requires children under 18 years of age to be secured in a child restraint system or an approved safety belt or harness. The bill removes an exemption that allowed children in the back seat of a vehicle to not be secured if all safety belts were in use. A violation of these provisions is punishable by a fine of $135.
