You can of course transport a child under six without a safety seat. The question should be whether it is legal or advisable to transport a child under a certain age without safety seat using a specific means of transport.

Most localities will have legal requirements for use of motorized vehicles. Some localities also have legislation for use of some not motorized forms of transport, such as bicycles or horseback. Few will have legislation applicable to the individual use of other forms of transport, including the use of public transport, walkways, etc.

Common sense dictates that everyone should always travel with suitable safety arrangements meeting, and possibly exceeding, legal minimum requirements. This includes the use of safety belts in cars, crash helmets on motorbikes and bicycles, or protective back gear and helmet on horseback. For persons under a certain size, standard safety belts in cars are insufficient, and should be accompanied by raised seating. While the law typically expresses a threshold in terms of age, this is not so much a matter of the persons's age, but her or his body size, state of mental health and sense of responsibility.
