SB 26-26

Senate Bill 26-26, now signed into law in Colorado, increases the weight limit for passenger vehicles that are required to use child safety seats from less than 10,000 pounds to less than 16,000 pounds. This change affects larger vehicles like some SUVs and minivans, making it easier for families with children to transport them safely in heavier vehicles without violating state regulations. The bill is now law, meaning it has been signed by the governor and will be enforced as part of Colorado's transportation rules.
