D0 we need a child restraint in a taxi?
Children under one year do not have to use a child restraint in a taxi; children over one year must use a seat belt or child restraint (supplied by the passenger) in a taxi.
A restraint should be used wherever possible; use a child harness with children over 14 kg if it is difficult to carry a child restraint (such as when going to the airport or shopping).
It is not safe to put a child in a seat belt with you or nurse them on your lap.
A restraint is supplied by the passengers, not the taxi driver.
All taxis have to provide an anchor bolt or fitting for one restraint
