Georgia Child Safety Seat and Seat Belt Laws

By Heather Corley, About.com

Georgia state law requires children under age 6 to ride in an approved car seat or booster seat that is appropriate for their height and weight.

Children under age 6 also must ride in the back seat unless all back seat positions are in use by other passengers or there is no back seat. If a child is riding in the front seat due to one of those exemptions, the child must be appropriately restrained in a car seat or booster.

Georgia law requires children ages 6 to 16 to be buckled in a seat belt.
