An Ontario driver who tried to use a case of beer as a makeshift booster seat for a toddler has been charged, police say.

According to a tweet from the Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) the two-year-old was not harmed while sitting on the case of beer in the front passenger’s seat.

The driver was charged with failing to ensure the child was properly seat belted.

OPP is reminding drivers that children under 40 lbs require a child seat. Children under the age of eight, who are under 4’9″ tall and weigh less than 80 lbs require a booster seat.
