What are the laws reguarding babies riding on public transport buses?

I live in America, but am currently visiting Oxford, England.
Today I was taking the bus, because public transportation is very popular here. I noticed a woman riding the bus with her baby, in her lap. Another woman got on the bus and brought her entire stroller on the bus. I know that there are many laws in America about car seats and seat belts etc. What laws are there to protect the children riding on public transportation?

    Hi, I hope you like the UK! Busses are very popular as a mode of transport because in a car you would end up stuck in traffic for hours going in to the city.

    About laws for babies on busses, none really, there is a space on the bus designated for people with guide dogs, wheelchairs, and strollers (prams), this will be the place you noticed and it looks like a row or two of seats are missing.

    The mother holding her child in her arms, would be unlikely to drop her child, and the pram would not move, because the wheel lock would be in place.

    There is a fine for driving without a seatbelt in a car though, and strict rules about having car seats fitted properly. I would be horrified to see anyone holding a baby in their lap while driving a car!

    I hope this has helped
