According to the Missouri State Highway Patrol, children less than 4 years old are required to use a child passenger restraint system. Children less than 40 pounds, regardless of age, must be secured in a car seat. Children ages 4 to 8 years old that weigh at least 40 pounds but less than 80 pounds, and are less than 4’9” tall, must be secured in a booster seat. Children ages 8 through 15 are required to wear seat belts. It is the driver’s responsibility to ensure passengers under the age of 15 are buckled up safely. The driver can be pulled over and ticketed for noncompliance of these laws. It is the parent’s responsibility to provide a car seat or booster seat for their child if they are not big enough or old enough to be secured in a seat belt. If a safety seat is not provided, the child will not be able to go on the field trip. We want all of our children to be safe when going on field trips.
