BBC reported that Britney Spears did not break state law by allegedly driving with her baby in a forward-facing car seat, her record company says.

 

Sony BMG was responding to reports of a photograph of Spears driving in Malibu, California, with Sean Preston, one, in the back facing forward not back.

 

Spears, who is now pregnant with her second child, was in "total compliance" with Californian law, Sony BMG said.

 

In February, she was photographed driving with her son on her lap.

 

The 24-year-old later said she was frightened by paparazzi chasing her but admitted she had made a mistake on that occasion.

 

In a statement, Sony BMG said state law required that "all children under the age of six or weighing less than 60lbs be in safety seats in the back seat of the car".

 

It added rear-facing car seats were compulsory neither in California nor many other parts of the US.

 

"In fact, there are only 10 [states] that require a child to be in a rear-facing car seat, and in two of those states it is not required if the infant is more than 20 lbs. Britney's son Sean weighs over 20 lbs."

of course she is gonna try and talk her way out of it but to be honest are mothering skills are indeed VERY questionable in my opinion.... 3 visits from the child welfare people is quite shocking in the space of time it has all happened!! i just dont think she was prepared at all for motherhood after her rushed marriage... :unsure:
