ALL CHILDREN MUST be ?properly secured ? in an appropriate child passenger restraint system or safety belt meeting applicable federal motor vehicle safety standards.? (CA vehicle code 27360.5) If your child age 8 and over needs a booster to fit the seat belt correctly, they need one to ride Metro Micro.

In Los Angeles, the Metro Micro on-demand rideshare service follows specific age and safety guidelines for its passengers. Children aged 13 and older are permitted to ride Metro Micro unaccompanied, provided they have their own account or a booked seat. For children under the age of 13, they must be accompanied by a parent, guardian, or an adult at least 18 years of age. Regarding safety equipment, all California state laws apply: children under the age of 8 or who are less than 4 feet 9 inches tall must be secured in an appropriate child passenger restraint system (car seat or booster) in the rear seat. Metro Micro vehicles do not provide car seats, so parents must bring their own if their child requires one to ride legally. For very young children (under 2 years old), they must ride in a rear-facing seat unless they weigh 40 or more pounds or are 40 or more inches tall. As long as these safety and accompaniment rules are met, there is no "minimum age" to ride the service with an adult, though the adult remains responsible for the child's behavior and safety during the journey.
