Child Car Seat Law in Malaysia 2026: Who Needs One, the 136cm Rule and the Real Penalty
Child car seats have been compulsory in private cars since 1 January 2020, but most parents still are not sure who counts as a child, whether the front seat is allowed, or what the fine is. We read the gazetted rules, P.U.(A) 375/2019: under 12, under 36kg and under 136cm, a court fine of up to RM2,000, and four exceptions. Grab has also just started booster-seat rides to KLIA.
