Child Safety Seats in Greyhound BusesCustomers are welcome to use child safety seats on Greyhound buses. However, the seat space must be purchased at the discounted child fare. You should ensure that your child seat has been approved for use in a motor vehicle, and is used in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions.It is your responsibility to secure the child seat to the bus seat with strapping or webbing that is approved by the child seat manufacturer. You are responsible for providing the strapping or the webbing. You should also secure your child in the child seat with a manufacturer-approved lap and/or shoulder belt/harness. Greyhound does not provide lap and/or shoulder belts/harnesses.
In Florida, children under the age of 6 must be secured in a federally-approved child restraint seat while riding in a motor vehicle. If a child is not secured in a child restraint seat, they must sit in the back seat if the vehicle is equipped with one. It is recommended for children under 13 to ride in the back seat whenever possible.
If you have a child in the front seat of a car, you must ensure they are wearing a seat belt and that the airbag is connected. An unrestrained child without an airbag will be flung through the windshield in a crash and will die.The only exception to this is if you've got a baby in a rear-facing car seat strapped to the passenger seat. The baby seat must, without exception, be attached to the seat solidly, or the seat must be strapped to the seat in an approved manner. Then the airbag must be disconnected to prevent crush injuries in a crash.Urban myths have spread about airbags being dangerous. They are not, but not using a seatbelt is very dangerous; not using a seatbelt for your child is wanton neglect. For best results, strap your child into a car seat, fitted by professionals, on the rear seat of your car.
1. When must you use a child safety seat?
This is directly from the New Jersey drivers handbook. Children up to age eight or a weight of 80 pounds must ride in a federally approved safety booster seat in the rear seat of the vehicle. If there is no rear seat, the child must sit in the front seat secured by a safety booster seat.
