I thought the middle seat was the safest for my child, but his/her booster seat says I have to use a lap and shoulder belt. Where should I put him/her?
You must use a lap and shoulder belt with all booster seats that are not made to be secured to the vehicle. If you do not have shoulder belts in the center position of the back seat, you should place your child in one of the rear outboard (side) positions which does have a shoulder belt. Rear-seat outboard shoulder belt systems can be retrofitted into many pre-1990 vehicles.
