What age do children have to stay in car seats til?
Answers:
With the new law about to come in, children under the age of eleven have to have a child seat or a booster seat.
35, with the seat belt on and their eyes closed because they're blind to the outside world.
It is the choice of the parent.
Depends on the law where you live.
40 pounds and 4 years old in California
till theyre big enough to fit in the regular seat
has nothing to do with age, its more about weight and height.
I would say until they're 21 years old. That way you don't have to let them drive your car or pay for their insurance.
untill age 8
Age 3-4, depends highly on size and weight!..
not sure
Six years or 80-100 Lbs, per federal regulations law.
It depends on the kids wieght. but if your kid is pretty average, that probaly about the age of 6 or 7.
they should stay in car seats until about 8 years old, at least that is what they say here in Saskatchewan Canada
It is different for every state. This pdf is from .gov, and covers all states:

ELEVEN!!
In the state of GA, and probably most other states, it's the height of the child which rules.. and here, it is 4'9"..
and, it's more of a booster seat than a full car seat like babies have to have.
As of September (new law comes into effect), until 12, or until they reach 1.35 metres tall.
Apparently:
From September 18th 2006, legislation will be introduced that will require that every child must travel in the appropriate child restraint until that child reaches either 135cm in height or 12 years old, after which they are eligible to use just an adult seat belt. Using an adult seat belt before a child is sufficiently developed may put them at higher risk of internal injury, particularly if the belt does not fit properly across the pelvis.

It depends on where you live. In Ontario, children are required to be harnessed in a rear-facing position in a car seat until they weigh 20 lbs. (9 kg). They recommend that children be kept rear-facing as long as possible. Some seats go rear-facing up to 30-35 lbs. (13.5-16 kgs.).
In Ontario, children are required to be harnessed in a forward-facing position in a car seat until they weigh 40 lbs. (18 kg). Then they will move to a booster seat until they weigh 80 lbs. (36kg) and 4ft 9 in. or up to a maximum age of eight.
Effective September 2005, the law requires children who weigh between 40 and 80 lbs (18-36kg), or with a standing height under 4 ft 9in. (145cm), or under the age of 8 years to use a booster seat. Drivers who do not use a booster seat to restrain the child will face a fine of $110 and 2 demerit points.
I think it depends on the size of the child, you could use a booster seat. Make sure the seat belt does not go near their necks.
children have to remain in carseats until they are 4 feet 9 inches tall which is around 5 0r 6 years old
New laws are just coming in, it is now the height of the child not age that governs how long they require a car seat. I think they need one up to 4ft 5inch's, but check this.!!!
Everybody in a car should be wearing a seat belt!!
The difference is who is responsible
children over the age of 14 are responsible for their own actions
Age 5 in NY
I usually take my kid out every time i get home
In the UK they have to stay in a child seat until they are of size where they can safely fit into the cars standard seatbelt.there is no age its just size
