blueeowynA study conducted by the National Highway Safety Administration showed that 80% of Child Safety Seats are misused.
Anyone want to lay money on the fact that they keep coming up with new ways to make the seats and each seat to car set-up could be slightly different as the primary cause? And the newborn seats will be different from the 2 year old seats and different from the 4 year old booster seats? Anyone? Bueller?
For anyone who bothers to read this LJ; if you have a child (or are planning to); please save yourself the grief/guilt of an improperly installed car seat and gets yours checked. Have each set up checked as the child moves to a new seat (you are exempt from this if you are re-using a seat that you already know how to fasten into the car you had with the previous use of the seat).
For anyone near UM Child Safety Seat Technicians will be installing/checking child safety seats on Maryland Day. Please call (301) 405-3555 for an appointment.
