The Texas Department of Public Safety has addressed a viral claim about booster seat requirements. A viral image claimed that drivers under a certain height must use a booster seat, but the department says this is false. The law actually requires standard seatbelts for adults and passengers.

Children, however, must use appropriate safety seats, with booster seats required for those under 8 years old, unless they exceed a certain height. The agency urges people to verify information on official websites before sharing it, to avoid spreading false claims. Further details are available from the Texas Department of Public Safety.
