In my province, a child has to be in a car seat until he or she is 63cm 
(25in) from the seat to the top of the head, so she could still be fined 
for having an unrestrained kid in the car.

Also, she still can't use the car pool lane has you have to have two (in 
some cases three) people of driving age to be able to use it.  The goal 
is to reduce the number of cars on the roads.  An infant can't drive a 
car by herself, therefore her mom does not qualify to use the carpool 
lane, as the baby's presence has no bearing on the number of cars used 
by that family.
