What is the law in California regarding baby carseats and charter buses?

We will be visiting Disneyland with our 18 month old daughter and traveling by charter bus from LAX to our hotel in Anaheim. We will not be travelling in a car at all, only charter buses and possibly a taxi. Are we required by law to bring a car seat for the charter bus? Is it even possible to attach the seat (as there usually are no seatbelts in charter buses)?

2. car seats are recommended everywhere until they reach 4'9''
3. You are correct, there are no seatbelts in charter buses. If you think you need to use a carseat, please bring your own belts. I personally would not bother, but then I'm not married (yet). :) On the other hand, please remember that charter buses are the safest method of transportation around, least number of accidents per passenger-mile, for the past decade and more.
4. My daughter always takes the toddler's car seat in the plane, taxis and trains. Don't know about buses, but I think there are special extra belts to secure it. Safer that way!
