If Kalifornia was a human it would be locked up in a mental ward for the incurebly insane!

How many of us didn't wear seatbelts at all growing up? I didn't wear a seatbelt regularly until I started driving.

I’ll bet more children age 6-8 are killed by illegals in California than by not being in a booster seat.

Notice the fines for this are out of this world high. This is all about revenue collection pure and simple. We are rapidly evolving into a police state where everything you do has the potential to generate a fine and thus revenue for the state. It’s all for the children ... or more likely the public employee unions and their fat salaries and pensions!

Well if mrs Obama would allow kids to eat something other than arugula, they might not have n Korean statures. Seriously though, my petite baby girl would have been in a seat til she was nine. Sounds like a broke state needing to generate revenue so bad they will make up any excuse to ticket you or make you buy taxable items.

We didn’t need car seats when I was little. The way mom drove, we were already holding on for dear life...

The minimum height is 4’9”. A few more years of shrinking and I will need a booster seat (I’m 4’11”)

One of the new Californicate revenue laws.

The state has no power over an innocent man.

lol...more idiocy from the “we know what’s best for you” lunkheads.

My son is Laotian - he’s almost 6, weighs 35lbs soaking wet and is only a little over 3 feet tall. At this rate, he’d be in a booster seat until he’s 18...lol.

Your graphic is perfect.
This is completely ridiculous. I'm sure an 8-year old wants to sit in a booster seat, for crying out loud.

Laws like this make Arizona seem very desirable. Need to wait until oldest grandson finishes high school, then I just might take the 3 grandbabies there and start over. I never thought I would say that, but sheesh this state is out of control...

What’s next for Kalifornia, requiring kids to be in a crib until 7, to prevent them from falling out of bed?

These “new” California rules mirror the existing Georgia rules.

Will this law apply to illegal aliens or will they be exempted?

“Drivers caught violating the new law will face fines between $475 and $1000.”

They don’t care about the kids, they care about collecting the fines.

I would think that CA would introce dua law mandating breast feeding up to a certain age too. However, it would probably be considered discriminatory to gays and thus wouldn’t pass.

This looks the same as Washington’s State’s law. I didn’t see the problem nor did the kids. I’ve never heard of the “over-eight” part of the law being enforced.

The purpose behind the law is keeping kids safe on the road.

No, the purpose is to get more revenue in an already over taxed and bankrupt state. If they truly cared about kids, they'd enforce DUI laws.
