Summary
It amends state law so that a driver cannot be found at fault for an accident simply because a child passenger was not properly restrained. The change applies to all passengers under 18 and keeps existing safety‑belt requirements but removes liability for non‑compliance. The goal is to separate safety enforcement from civil fault.
