What main criterion should we base our decision on when choosing a suitable child restraint system?

Question

DentroTest · Accepted Answer

Choosing the correct Child Restraint System (CRS) is vital for the passive safety of minors. The correct answer is to base the decision on the child's weight and height. Analysis of the answers:  According to the child's weight and height (Correct): Approval regulations (such as R44/04 based on weight groups and the i-Size R129 regulation based on height) are designed to adapt to the child's physical morphology. Harnesses and protections must fit the body perfectly to be effective in the event of an impact.  According to the child's age (Incorrect): Age is only a guideline. Physical development varies greatly among children of the same age; what matters is their actual physical build.  The largest size (Incorrect): Buying a larger seat 'so it lasts longer' is a serious mistake. If the CRS is too loose, the child could suffer the 'submarine effect' (sliding under the seatbelt) or be ejected in a collision.
