Whether you’re a parent who’s new to Singapore or a Red Dot veteran, the issue of safe taxi travel with kids has no doubt plagued your mind. If you don’t own a car, it’s likely to crop up a LOT. So what are the laws, what are the risks and what products are out there to help keep your kiddos safe?Group 1/harness seats (the Nomad, Urban Kanga, Nachfolger) - these use a harness to restrain the child and are suitable up to a maximum of 18kg or 105cm depending again whether the seat is approved to the height or weight based standard. Because of the harness, even height based harness seats have a max weight limit. They say up to age 4, but this is approximate. Some children will fit into them for longer and it's safe to keep using them if they are under the weight and height limit. Your little one sounds on the smaller side for their age, based purely on the height it looks like somewhere between 2nd and 9th centile, so this kind of seat might well last until more like 5 years old. Their weight may change this estimate. Any straps holding the restraint to the vehicle should be tight and any straps restraining the child should be adjusted to the child’ s body size. The straps should not be twisted. This child car seat must not be used without the cover. Please use an original cover, as the cover contributes to the safety of the seat. Since your child might not be quite in the weight/height region for booster seats just yet, what about a lightweight standard type car seat? Something like Britax Eclipse (which is additionally plane approved) or Joie Steadi (which has a rear facing option). These are cheaper than most of the folding options so it might not matter that you'll only get a couple of years out of it. Or even the cheaper generic/own brand type supermarket seats by Nania etc - these tend to be pretty flimsy, and average to low on the performance end, but they are light, seatbelt fitted, cheap to buy and they score better than the Urban Kanga. Something like Nania Racer SP or Nania I-Max SP

Know the statistics The crash test rating is not good; the side impact protection is basically nothing at all (more of a problem for this age group which is why it gets a worse score) and they rate it with a high risk of making an error while using, which is a problem, because if it's not fitted correctly then it's likely to perform worse even than this already not-great score.
