As a new or expecting parent one of the many decisions you have to make is how you will get around with your new baby. When it comes to car seats there are a few different options available to you. You can purchase a car seat or you can use a car seat that you already have. You can also use a car seat that comes with your car or you can use a car seat that you borrow from a friend or family member. And then there is the option of using Uber.
So do you need a car seat for Uber? The answer is it depends.
If you are using Uber Pool or UberX then no you do not need a car seat. These services allow you to bring your child in a car seat of their own.
If you are using Uber XL or UberSelect then yes you will need a car seat. These services do not provide car seats so you will need to bring your own.
And finally if you are using UberBlack or UberSUV then you have the option to either bring your own car seat or have the car seat provided by the service.
So what is the best option for you? If you are only using Uber occasionally then it may not be worth it to purchase a car seat just for Uber. You may be better off borrowing one from a friend or family member. Or if you are a regular Uber user then it may be worth it to purchase a car seat so that you always have one with you.
Whatever you decide make sure that you are following the car seat laws in your state. And always err on the side of safety when it comes to your child.
