Summary
The bill sets rules for how drivers must secure children under 16 in motor vehicles, specifying when rear‑facing seats, forward‑facing seats, booster seats or regular seat belts are required based on the child’s age, weight and height. It creates modest fines for violations and tells the highways and transportation commission to run a public education program. Public carriers for hire and certain school‑bus passengers are exempt.
