[quote=Anonymous]According to Car Seats for the Littles, [b]assuming the child fits the seat belt properly and has the maturity to sit in one correctly[/b], they find no evidence that a 5 point harness is safer than a booster: "There is not any scientific information that gives us reason to believe that a harness is safer than a properly used booster seat. The key is the booster being properly used: where the child is of appropriate age and the belt is positioned properly. NHTSA recommends utilizing a 5 point harness until the child outgrows it. There’s no rush to move to a booster right away, but if your child is nearing the weight or height maximum of their seat and is behaviorally ready to ride in a booster; don’t feel that you are reducing their safety by moving to a booster." If anyone follows this group, you know this is a very conservative group of people. http://csftl.org/harness-or-booster-when-to-make-the-switch/[/quote]
