Can anyone tell if there are integrated booster seats by looking at the rear seats of a Volvo. It seems that most searches either do not tell you or do not have them. I thought there may be any easier way. Thanks

The rear booster seat will have a handle in front and it will also have a visible seperation from side parts of the seat unlike non booster where all is stitch together.

That's right! A rear booster seat will have a handle in front and it consist of little more than a plastic frame and foam pad, similar to stadium chairs that adults take to sporting events. Of course it is necessary since placing a child in a booster seat can reduce the chance of injuries in a crash by up to 45 percent compared to just seat belts. However, a while ago I read this article entitled "Half of booster seats unsafe says insurance group (http://www.newsytype.com/12723-booster-seats-unsafe/)". It says that this year’s survey, it was discovered that nearly half of children's booster car seats don't meet safety requirements. The tests show that around half of the seats made do not fit correctly. This aggrandizes the potential for injury if not modified. Therefore, regardless of the model of booster seats, we need to consider precautionary measures about its utilization to ensure our child's safety.
