Child Restraint Requirements

Summary

The bill bans riders from carrying children under 8 on motorcycles or mopeds unless the child is in a sidecar and properly restrained, and it tightens car‑seat requirements for children 8½ years or younger. It specifies which devices must be used for different age groups, lists limited exceptions, and adds penalties that can be avoided by completing a safety course. The measure was intended to improve child passenger safety but failed to pass.
