AI Summary
This bill requires children under two years of age to be properly secured in a rear-facing car seat, expanding the existing law which previously required children under one year of age or weighing 20 pounds or less to be in a rear-facing car seat. The bill also declares an emergency, making the changes effective immediately upon passage. The amendments do not apply to children one year of age or older at the time the bill takes effect, who will continue to be governed by the previous law.
