A person may not be found to have violated this subsection if the person carries a certificate from a physician, physician's assistant, or advanced practice registered nurse stating that it would be impractical to require that a child be fastened and restrained by a child restraint system because of:
(1) a physical condition, including physical deformity; or
(2) a medical condition;
of the child and presents the certificate to the police officer or the court.
(b) Notwithstanding IC 34-28-5-5(c), funds collected as judgments for violations under this section shall be deposited in the child restraint system account established by section 9 of this chapter.
