New South Wales · Driver Knowledge Test (DKT) · Road safety

What restraint must a child aged over 12 months use while travelling in a taxi?

The answer

  • A booster seat, or a properly adjusted and fastened seatbelt Correct
  • No restraint is required in a taxi
  • A forward-facing seat with an inbuilt harness only
  • A rear-facing child car seat

Why that's the answer

In a taxi, children over 12 months must use a booster seat or wear a properly adjusted and fastened seatbelt. The rules about children in the front seat still apply, and all taxis must have a child restraint anchorage point.
