Motor vehicle safety; requiring certain restraints for child passengers. Effective date.
SB 464 updates Oklahoma's child passenger safety law by requiring rear-facing car seats for children under age 4 until they reach age 2 or the seat's weight/height limit, whichever comes first. It also mandates booster seats or child restraints for children aged 4-8 who are under 4 feet 9 inches tall. The bill applies to drivers transporting children under 8 in vehicles on Oklahoma roads, with exceptions for medical reasons, certain vehicles (like school buses), and specific weight-based scenarios. The law takes effect November 1, 2025, and revenue from associated fines will fund highway safety programs.
