How ever did industrialized people survive without children in car seats? This law can force you to get a larger vehicle than you might prefer, due to the mandatory space-hogging safety seats.

I didn't know that. I've always wondered why so many women are driving these suburban assault vehicles. I didn't think it was all because hubby needed the legroom.

Yep. Instead of having babies in a passenger's arms, you have to strap them into a car seat. And there's some crazy minimum age at which they can be free in the car...age five or six. Maybe a height/weight thing. It's absurd.

This may be just a Texas law.
