All children whose weight or height exceeds the forward-facing limit for their car seat should use a belt-positioning booster seat until the vehicle seat belt fits properly, typically when they have reached 4 feet 9 inches in height and are 8 through 12 years of age.
Newborn children up to 2 years of age should be placed in a rear-facing car seat in the back seat. Children from ages 2 to 5 years old should be put in a forward-facing car seat. After the age of 5 or until the seat belt fits the child properly, the child should be in a booster seat. Children should not be taken out of the booster seat until they are 57 inches tall so that the seat belt will fit properly.
