Do children have to be in a car seat while riding in a taxi?

well if they have to in your automobile wouldn’t they have to in any other automobile?

Yes, but how? Does the parent carry one around everywhere? Do cabs have car seats?

true

Not required in a yellow NY City cab. Some parents will bring them along though.

Most places have written in exceptions to the law requiring child seats that exempts taxis. If the parent has a car seat with them, though, many require that the taxi must use it.

Nevada
Massachusetts
Ohio
Virginia
etc.

Hmmm, I have just asked a similar question. I can’t imagine carrying a car seat around all day and my nephew is coming to stay soon and I know there will be times when we need to ride in a taxi. Does he sit on my lap or what?
