| Car seats for children - law change 1 April 2010
Just a quick reminder whilst there are still a couple of shopping weekends to go - don't forget that the law for the use of children's car seats in Switzerland will be changing from 1 April.
Now: kids under 7 must be in a child seat or booster
Then: kids under 12 OR under 1.5m tall must be in a child seat or booster
Expect a rush the last week of March, as people chat around the school gate and suddenly realise they need to buy the cheapest booster possible for their 11 yr old for the next 6 months. And I imagine the police will be over-zealous for at least the first couple of weeks.
