Tip of the Week

Child Car Seat Safety
"Car crashes are the number one killer of children 1 to 12 years old in the United States.  The best way to protect them in the car is to put them in the right seat, at the right time, and use it the right way," a message from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA).

Effective January 1, 2012, children under 8 years of age must be properly buckled in a car seat or booster seat, in the back seat of a vehicle.  There is an "or" clause if the child has reached a height of 4' 9".  Shoulder belt should be at mid-shoulder and lap belt should be across thighs.
