Japan's Car Seat Law
Those who drive a car with a child younger than 6 years old must have a child seat.
Failure to do so will result in deduction of 1 driver's license point (same penalty for not wearing
a seat belt).
Exceptions:
- A car in which a child seat cannot be installed for structural reasons
- A car in which a child seat cannot be installed because of full capacity of passengers
- When a child is being taken care of (being fed, etc.)
- When riding on public transportation
