A 6-year-old is 4 feet 5 inches tall. Under Oklahoma law, how must the child ride?
- A In a seat belt alone, since the child is older than 4
- B In a car seat or a booster seat
- C On an adult's lap
- D Only in a rear-facing car seat, until age 8
Show answer
B. In a car seat or a booster seat
Oklahoma law requires a child at least 4 but under 8 who is not taller than 4 feet 9 inches to ride in a child passenger restraint system or a booster seat. A seat belt alone is enough only once the child turns 8 or is taller than 4 feet 9 inches, when the adult belt fits properly.

Your car has a passenger-side airbag. Where does the manual recommend children under 12 ride?
- A In the back seat
- B In the front seat if belted
- C In the front seat with the seat pushed back
- D Anywhere, if over 4 feet tall
Show answer
A. In the back seat
An airbag's explosive force has killed children, so the manual recommends putting children under 12 in the back seat. Even without airbags, the back seat is at least 26 percent safer.
