seats will now attach to the vehicle seat via these anchorages instead of being held by the vehicle's seat belts. By September 1, 2002, the LATCH system will be required in two rear-seating positions in all new cars, minivans, and light trucks. What do I do if I don't have a LATCH-equipped car?
There is no need to worry; all car seats are also able to be secured using a standard belt system. Regardless of which system you use to secure your seat, it is recommended that you get it checked out by a professional just to rule out any potential problems.
Get your LATCH checked out
Before you put your in the car seat for the first time, you should get your car seat checked out by a trained professional. Most towns have such services available through the fire department or local police department.

With a little bit of knowledge, you and your little one can rest safely knowing that you are in the best hands possible with the LATCH system.
