flag California to require booster seats for kids 8–16 who fail seatbelt fit test, starting 2027.

flag California will require children aged 8 to 16 to use booster seats if they don’t pass a five-step safety test for proper seatbelt fit, starting in 2027. flag The test ensures correct positioning of lap and shoulder belts. flag While the law applies only in California for now, it has sparked discussion about potential adoption in Idaho, where many children currently transition out of boosters earlier and sometimes ride in the front. flag If similar rules pass in Idaho, older children might need boosters, changing family travel habits. flag Idaho’s current laws remain unchanged, but travelers should prepare for California’s new rule.
