Posted By Mark Edwards Could anyone please advise me as to the requirements of these seats in comapny cars that are transporting families, including very young children, is it a legal requirement to use a car seat for babies? Regards Mark Edwards.

Posted By Peter J Harvey First thing to do might be to check you insurance if this is a company car?

Posted By Ken Taylor To be fair to the enquirer on this one, we need to consider that there are employees who are required to transport families around in cars (Social Workers and the like). The law is quite complicated on this subject with different types of carry cots, child safety seats, booster cushions, etc, considerations as to who should be accommodated where in the vehicle, whether seat-belts are required and, if so, where, whether free seats are available for use, etc, etc. This is why I have said contact RoSPA in order to get the printed information and guidance so that it can be properly applied in the circumstances. As to insurance, everyone using their vehicle for their business or that of their employer needs to be insured for that use and in this process the insurers will need to be informed as to the nature of the use.
