Germany has relatively strict laws when it comes to child safety while driving. German law requires that any child up to 12 years of age who are less than 59 inches tall must ride in an approved car seat or booster. Any child under the age of three may not be in a moving vehicle without a suitable car seat and no rear facing infant seats are allowed in the front seat of a vehicle with airbags.
These laws also apply when riding in a taxi.
