No age restriction. They are supposed to stay in until they are 4'9"

I believe it was height of 4 ft 9 inches, or a certain weight (I think it was 110 lbs). That means that some kids who are 14 or 15 could be required to wear one.

it is not a matter now of how old he is he has grown. now it goes by his weight and height take his weight and height and go to the rule book that applies to state /country whatever/and the manufactors specifacations you can never be too careful with a child. it is a wise person that seeks advice and you are a wise person thanks and happy and safe motoring,,,,kitt

after a child reaches 6 years of age, they dont have to ride in a car seat anymore

Its more a question of their height and weight. Most kids get out of a car seat between 4 and 7 though, I think.

This is not really the best place to look something like this up. It varies from state to state and province to province. I've shown some links, one for the US and one for Canada that will give you the exact laws. In British Columbia, where I live, you're supposed to be in a booster seat until 80 Lbs. Also on a side-note, kids should stay out of the front seat with an airbag until they are 90 Lbs. and 5'2" tall, and drivers shorter than 5'2" should have their airbag removed on older cars.
