Colorado Child Passenger Safety Law

In June 2024, Gov. Jared Polis signed HB24-1055, a new bill that updates Colorado’s child passenger safety law. These updates reflect the latest research-based recommendations on car seat, booster seat and seat belt use for children. The updates, which became effective Jan. 1, 2025, will ensure that laws keep pace with evolving best practices for car seat and booster seat use.
