Illinois Child Passenger Protection Act

Children under age 8 must be secured in an appropriate child restraint system, which includes infant seats, convertible seats (rear-facing for infants and forward-facing for toddlers), forward facing only seats (toddlers) and booster seats used with vehicle lap/shoulder belts.  Always follow the safety seat manufacturer's instructions for height and weight guidelines. Children ages 8 and older are required by law to wear safety belts. For their ultimate safety, it is recommended that all children ride in the back seat.
