We use it now if we use another car that we dont have a car seat in the travel vests are very lightweight and you can order a tether on the ridesafer website should you find yourself in an older model car or in a foreign country with cars that do not have tethers in them

This was the first time we traveled without lugging a huge car seat through airports the vest fit my 3 12 year old well and we felt she was safe in the car as we traveled to and from our hotel

People wanted to help take the kids out but at first no one wanted to help because of lugging heavy car seats back and forth or big car seats in smaller cars but now everyone helps me out because i explained i have this amazing vest option

Once i heal we are traveling so i cant wait to use this and not have to worry about a large car seat getting thrown around or having to carry it through the airport
