Cabs and Carseats in Virginia?
We’re going to Virginia Beach for vacation, flying in to Norfolk Airport. Norfolk Airport is about 20 miles away from Virginia Beach. Seems like cab fare can run anywhere between $25 and $40 one way. As with other places we’ve traveled to by air, I looked into whether cabs are exempt from child car seat laws. So far, we’ve found that in Boston, Chicago, and New York, cabs have exemptions, either for “public” transportation or for “professional” drivers. And now I’ve learned that Virginia has a similar exemption. From the Virginia Department of Health:
Public transportation (taxis, buses), regulation school buses, and farm vehicles are exempted.
Good to know!
