Description

Each year thousands of young children are killed or injured in car crashes. You can help prevent this from happening to your child by always using car safety seats and seat belts correctly. This document explains how, including never place a child in a rear-facing car safety seat in the front seat of a vehicle that has a passenger air bag, read the owner's manual that came with your car on how to correctly install car safety seats, contact a certified Child Passenger Safety Technician if you need help installing your car safety seat, and more.
