Children's Car Seats
Reply Quote

Hi,

Does anyone know what the law in France is with regard to children and car seats.  I am wondering up to what age a child must be in a car seat and if there is any rule as to the type of car seat.  Can children go in a booster seat, for example, when they reach a certain age?  I presume that all children must be in the back of the car.  We have our children in booster seats (age 5 and 6) but a french person recently told me that a booster seat is not permitted.

Any advice would be welcome.

Many thanks

Children must be carried in the rear of the car.  A booster seat is permissable.
