Installing a car seat can be tricky but it is important to saving your child’s life. The Buckle Up for Life is a national care seat education program that provides tips on properly installing a car seat. Some of the tips they provide is tightening up the strap if you are able to create a wrinkle with a pinch, removing jackets during cold weather so the harness can fit properly, using new car seats, avoid using accessories such as mirrors and sun shades, and what the age limit is for rear facing.
Key Takeaways:
- Did you know that an alarming three out of four car seats are not installed properly? It’s shocking, but it’s true.
- For some people, car seats aren’t always the easiest things to figure out – from choosing the right one to making sure the straps are tight enough.
- But in some situations, a properly installed seat can mean the difference between life and death in a crash.
