Seat Belt Rules - Thanks to Weathersfield Police Department
Weathersfield Police Department
As there have been several seat belt violations lately, I figured a little education would help....
Title 23: Motor Vehicles
Chapter 13: OPERATION OF VEHICLES
Sub-Chapter 14: Equipment
23 V.S.A. § 1258. Child restraint systems; persons under age 18
§ 1258. Child restraint systems; persons under age 18
(a) No person shall operate a motor vehicle, other than a type I school bus, in this State upon a public highway unless every occupant under age 18 is properly restrained in a federally approved child passenger restraining system as defined in 49 C.F.R. § 571.213 (1993) or a federally approved safety belt, as follows:
(1) all children under the age of one, and all children weighing less than 20 pounds, regardless of age, shall be restrained in a rear-facing position, properly secured in a federally approved child passenger restraining system, which shall not be installed in front of an active air bag;
(2) a child weighing more than 20 pounds, and who is one year of age or older and under the age of eight years, shall be restrained in a child passenger restraining system; and
(3) a child eight through 17 years of age shall be restrained in a safety belt system or a child passenger restraining system.
