In accordance with Section 4581 of the Pennsylvania Vehicle Code, it is a law in Pennsylvania that:
• All drivers and front seat passengers in vehicles, light trucks and motor homes must wear seat belts.
• If you are transporting passengers age eight (8) or older but less than age 18, they must wear seat belts,
no matter where they are riding in the vehicle.
• If you are a driver under the age of 18, the number of passengers may not exceed the number of seat belts
in the vehicle.
YOU ARE REQUIRED BY LAW TO BUCKLE UP. It makes good sense to wear your seat belt.
If you are transporting children under age eight (8) who, by law, must ride in federally-approved child safety seats
or booster seats, read your vehicle owner’s manual and the directions that came with the seat so you know how to
tightly attach the seat to your vehicle’s seat and how to secure the children snuggly in their child seats.
