N2  - The survey discussed in this paper investigates how well current vehicle restraints and belt-positioning booster seats meet the needs of children aged 7 to 12 years. The restraint fit study recorded how seat belts fit 155 older children seated in three different vehicles when they were used with and without belt-positioning booster seats. One specific goal was to determine the largest size child who benefited from booster seats, and the smallest child that could effectively use three-point belts alone. A simple anthropometric survey of the child volunteers was also conducted as part of the restraint fit study.<p />
