Taxi with Child Seats

Safe & convenient rides for families with children. Infant, Child & Booster Seats available on request.

It is common practice that we travel with our kids daily. When kids travel in a car, a baby seat is mandatory to use according to UK law for children up to 11 years old. Manchester Airport Trips offer you taxi with infant seat, taxi with baby seat, taxi with child seat, taxi with car seat, and taxi with booster seat. Being in Manchester, we are providing our services in all cities in the UK. Book with us an airport transfer with a child seat to all the major cities in the UK.

Here are some reasons why a taxi with a child seat is needed:

  • Child safety: Child seats are designed to protect children in the event of a car accident. They help to keep children properly restrained in the event of a crash, which can reduce the risk of serious injury or death.
  • Legal requirements: In many countries, it is illegal to transport children in a taxi without a child seat. This is because child seats are considered to be an essential safety feature.
  • Comfort: Child seats can also help to keep children comfortable during a taxi ride. They can help to prevent children from being jostled around during the journey, which can make them feel sick or uncomfortable.
  • Convenience: Taxis with child seats can be a convenient way to travel with children. You don't have to worry about bringing your own child seat, and you can be sure that your child will be safe and comfortable during the journey.

Quick Overview of the Child Seat Law in the UK

Here is some information about the law on taxis with child seats in Manchester, UK:

  • In England, Scotland, and Wales: Children under the age of 12 must use a child car seat in a taxi if they are under 3 years old or are less than 135cm tall. Children between 3 and 12 years old (or who are at least 135 cm tall) can travel in the rear of a taxi, private hire vehicle, or minicab, but they must use an appropriate child seat if one is available.
  • In Northern Ireland: Children under the age of 12 must use a child car seat in a taxi if they are under 3 years old or are less than 125cm tall. Children between 3 and 12 years old (or who are at least 125 cm tall) can travel in the rear of a taxi, private hire vehicle, or minicab, but they must use an appropriate child seat if one is available.

There are some exceptions to these rules—for example, if the child is too tall or too heavy for a child seat, or if the taxi does not have a child seat. However, it is always best to check with the taxi company before you travel.

What if we travel without a child/car/baby seat in a taxi car?

The first thing is that not abiding by the law is not something to take pride in. Secondly, if you are caught, there is a huge fine of up to £500. Especially if you are traveling with a child under 3 years, you must always use a car seat. For children aged 4 to 11, using a child seat is the best practice, but there are some relaxations in the law to use a seatbelt. But being a private hire company, we recommend you to book the correct child seat according to the age of your child.
