Car Seat Check Events
Upcoming Car Seat Safety Check Events
Vehicle crashes are a leading cause of injury and death for children ages 1 to 13 in the U.S. To protect children, always use the correct car seat or booster seat properly on every ride. Certified Child Passenger Safety Technicians can help with proper installation and usage, with appointments lasting 30-45 minutes per seat. Bring the car seat, its instructions, and your vehicle manual. If your child can’t attend, bring a doll or teddy bear for practice.*
