Booster Seat Law:

On January 1, 2007, Hawaii passed a booster seat law requiring children between the ages of four through seven to ride in a child safety seat or booster seat whenever traveling in a motor vehicle.  The only exemptions are if the child is over 4'9" or if the vehicle has lap-only seat belts in the rear seat.   For more information, contact Keiki Injury Prevention Coalition at 537-9200 or visit their website at www.kipchawaii.org.
