Oregon state law requires that all children must ride in a federally approved car seat until they are at least 4 years old and weigh at least 40 pounds. Oregon law further requires that children use a booster seat until they are at least 6 years old and weigh at least 60 pounds. The booster seat law does not apply to vehicles that only have lap belts in the rear seat, as booster seats must be used with lap-shoulder belts only. Oregon strongly recommends that children under age 12 ride in the back seat. All Oregon passengers and drivers are required to wear a seat belt.
