Question 2 of 5 Last Thursday, state lawmakers met to revise seat belt laws in our
state. Previously, anyone 60 pounds and over was permitted to sit in
the front seat of a vehicle with a seat belt, while anyone under 60
pounds had to sit in the back. Children under five had to use a car seat
or booster seat appropriate for their size. The new law states that front
seat passengers must be at least 60 pounds and 12 years old.
Backseat laws remain the same.
