Can kids under 8 years old rent a car in Hawaii ?

Hello, in Hawaii, children must use child seats when driving. Currently, 22 states in the United States and the District of Columbia have passed relevant laws for child booster seats for children over 4 years old, raising the age limit for safety seats from 4 years to 6-9 years. In states with strict legislation, parents carrying children aged 4-9, if driving without a child booster seat, even if the child is wearing a seat belt, police in each state can still issue fines ranging from $25 to $500 for violations. The above-mentioned booster seats are suitable for children over 4 years old or weighing over 40 pounds, whose small bodies cannot be properly protected by seat belts.

Legal regulations require it

According to regulations, it is illegal to have children in a car without a safety seat. Rental car companies will not rent you a car, but generally rental car companies will not check your passengers, they will just give you the keys and tell you where to pick up the car. So you can try not to let the rental car company see your child, just drive to a supermarket and buy one. It's okay to drive all the way to Walmart in Honolulu, there are very few police on the roads in Hawaii. But if you want to be cautious and not get caught, then you can only rent from a rental car company, but the rent is very expensive, it will be more expensive than buying one in a few days. If there is room in the trunk, you can bring one from home.
