Keeping a child safe is an important and essential job. This can be a 24-hour job. Within this job, a parent needs to ensure a child is safe while in the car. This means that a parent can't think twice about his or her car seat choice and car seat rules. Although there is not an exact rule for an appropriate age at which a child should stop using a booster seat, most experts would agree that between the ages of eight and 12 would be most appropriate. The reason for this is that, a typical child in those age ranges would reach around four feet, nine inches, which would equate to an appropriate height to use a regular seat and seat belt.
The age that a child should use a car seat booster is when they are 2 years of age. Some kids need to use them a little bit earlier because weight and height has an effect on how earlier the kids need to use the booster seat.
When they are around 2 and have outgrown their child seat. They should continue to use a booster seat until they reach the height of 4 foot 9.

A child should use a car seat until they are ready for a booster seat you will know when its basically like clothes they will outgrow it. they should be in the booster seat until they are 4 foot 9.
The child's size is the factor here. If the seatbelt comes across their body like it does for you, then they do not need a booster seat. Sometimes, the child's weight is a factor, too. They should be at least 90 pounds in weight before they are allowed out of the booster seat.
When they about the height of 4'9".
I heard it was supposed to be by weight, not by height, but what do i know.....when they outgrow the carseat
in all states a child has to be 4foot nine to be out of a booster seat. they can be in a booster sear at any age.
The Booster offers safe, comfortable rides for someones child. Moving from a car seat to a booster seat still helps the child remain safe, while riding comfortably in the booster seat.
age 7 though if the child's shoulders are lower then back seat back rest,advice is to use booster seat
4' 9" and between the ages of 8 and 12.
4 The answer is NOT based on age but on the height and weight of your child. If your child is over 40lbs he/she can transition to a booster seat with lap/ shoulder restraint.
