What is the fundamental criterion for selecting the correct child restraint system (CRS)?

Question

DentroTest · Accepted Answer

To ensure maximum safety, Child Restraint Systems (CRS) must be chosen based on the child's physical characteristics, specifically their weight (under regulation R44/04) or height (under i-Size regulation). Age is merely a guideline and not a determining factor, as physical development varies among children of the same age. It is a serious mistake to choose a seat larger than necessary to 'make it last longer'; if the system does not fit the child's body tightly, the harnesses or seat belt will not work on the proper skeletal areas, drastically increasing the risk of injury or ejection in the event of an accident.
