Car Seat Rules in NSW

The driver is responsible for children under seven years being secured by an approved child restraint suitable for their age and size.

Suitable Child Car Restraint

Children aged between four and seven years must use a forward‑facing child car seat with an inbuilt harness or an approved booster seat.

Children aged seven years and over who are too small

to use a seatbelt should use an approved booster seat

or an anchored safety harness. The suggested minimum

 height for using a seatbelt is 145 cm or taller.
