Restraint road rules
All persons travelling in a motor vehicle must travel in a restraint that is properly adjusted and fastened. The restraint will be a child restraint, booster seat or adult seatbelt. The type of restraint will depend on the person’s size. The road rules in Victoria require:
A child under six months of age to travel in a rearward facing approved child restraint.
A child aged six months to under 4 years to travel in either a rearward facing OR forward facing approved child restraint. The type of restraint will depend on the child’s size.
A child aged 4 years to under 7 years to travel in either a forward facing approved child restraint with an inbuilt harness, or an approved booster seat*. The type of restraint will depend on the child’s size.
A child aged 7 years to under 16 years to travel in either an approved booster seat or an adult seatbelt. The type of restraint will depend on the child’s size.
A person 16 years and over to travel in an adult seatbelt.
* A booster seat can be used with a lap-sash seatbelt or child safety harness. A child safety harness is not recommended for use with a booster seat in a seating position with a lap-sash seatbelt.
Approved child restraints, booster seats and child safety harnesses
In Victoria, approved child restraints, approved booster seats and approved child safety harnesses are restraints that comply with the 1995, 2000, 2004 or 2010 versions of the Australian and New Zealand Standard AS/NZS 1754. This standard (AS/NZS 1754) is one of the most stringent child restraint standards in the world.
When buying your child’s restraint, look for the standard’s sticker on the restraint and wording on the package that states it complies with AS/NZS 1754.
In addition integrated (or integral) booster seats are considered an approved booster seat and are legal for use by children 4 years and over when travelling in a motor vehicle in Victoria.
An integrated booster seat is one which is built into the seat of the car when it is manufactured. The seat can be adjusted to allow an adult or a child 4 years and over to travel in that seat. |
