Car seats

What is the situation re  car seats for children? My grandchild who is 2 years old is arriving and I wonder if I should hire one?If I call a taxi what if they don't have one? Is it ok to have her on my lap in the rear of the vechicle strapped in?

Magsfhy, it's illegal in Spain as it is in the UK for a child of that age not to be in a restraint wherever the child is seated.

Answers to your question are covered in Car seats for very young babies See especially Bobaol's post in there 15 Apr 2008 10:34 PM.

I guess in a taxi, which obviously won't cater for young children, you do your utmost to restrain them.
