If the child isn't riding in the car, you have to still put the seat belt over the seat, just to keep the seat in place, correct?

Not really. Seat is sturdy enough to keep in its place without the seat belt when your child isn't in it.

We do recommend securing the seat with the car seat belt when the child does not occupy the seat.

Not really as the seat belt is looped through to serve as the belt as there is no built in harness.

Yes it is! I did find that if the car seat was placed in the bottom seat it was a little hard to get off, so I put the car seat in the top seat and have no issues.

My granddaughter is 7 years old and is using a booster seat in the car. She loves her seat pet. It straps onto the regular seat belt that stretches across her chest, giving her a place to lay her head. No problem at all.

Yes. The seatbelt holds the car seat in place. It goes across the back of the carseat. This Lookout car seat is not only good for their safety but helps prevent car sickness. Our little girl, a 14 pound Shih Tzu, loves looking out of the window and it is big enough for her to sleep in.

No latch capability is needed. This car seat is only secured by using the seat belt in your car. When your child is NOT in the car seat, it is safest to buckle the car seat in using the seat belt, otherwise it could cause serious harm if you're in an accident because it is not secured by a latch system.

Nope, all you need is either the LATCH clips that come with the car, or if your car is old enough that it doesn't have them, then a seat belt does the trick.

It would be difficult if you secure it tightly to the car seat properly. You can recline it then buckle it into the seat. My car has the easy hook rings at the bottom of each chair so I don't need to use the seatbelt. I guess if I were using the seatbelt feature I could recline after a child has fallen asleep in it.

Boosters don't need anchor clips. The car's seat belt holds the seat and child in place.

It attaches to the car's lap belt to prevent the child from "submarining" or sliding under the seatbelt in the event of a sudden stop. It is a very good safety feature. One of the main reasons I purchased this booster seat.

It still depends on the seat belt to be secure... But there are 2 more buckles like the seatbelt to secure the vest onto him and one that keeps him from sliding out from under the vest that fastens from back to front between the legs. Once the vest is on and he is seated, the seat belt is secured through the front of the vest w/ metal C clips that keep the seat belt low and in place. At times this can be difficult to undo with a moving child but could help delay his escape for a while. This also should be used w/ the shoulder strap and has Velcro to keep it placed just right- not on his neck, but st his shoulder. My kids would not be able to get out & still attached w/ seat belt at the beginning. The best thing about this is that it looks like a space/ astronaut suit & they learned to tolerate it b/c it was special. The only down side to this is that my kids couldn't see out the window, which is why they wanted out of the seat belt in the first place. We just had special things for them to do in the car when we traveled to keep them safe. Best to you and your family.

There is no latch system. When your child isn't in the seat, you can still use the seat belt to "buckle" the seat in so it doesn't become a projectile if you're in an accident.

If the car stops fast, the seat belt will lock to hold the child in place. Just like when you are in a seat belt and lean down. Obviously, your chin on your knees is not the ideal crash position, so teaching the proper way to ride in a car is important.

The piece that goes around the handle fastens it to the carseat. Velcro tabs keep it done up, and the rest is cinched (near where there feet are), so it covers the seat, but isn't too tight, so it doesn't always stay in place. I kind of hook it on my daughter's feet, so she doesn't get burnt. It still works, and suited me for the price.

Yes, there are two slots through which you can lace a seatbelt across the lap of the car seat. The car seat must be facing the rear of the vehicle though.

I think so; there are places for seatbelts to go through. But the child's feet will be within the hammock which could be uncomfortable. I think it would be best to use the zipper fold away, and put the car seat on that side, doggie on the other.

Also, the seat belt is what holds both the seat and the occupant in it down. It doesn't clip into those little metal clips built into newer car seats either. So basically the seat is loose if not for the occupant and belt.
