Ride Right at Every Age and Every Stage

Proper use of your child’s car seat can mean the difference between life and death. Tragedy can be avoided by following these simple rules:

  • Use the vehicle seat belt or lower anchors to install car seats. Do not use both unless allowed by both the car seat manufacturer and the vehicle owner’s manual.
  • Car seats should be installed snugly and not move more than one inch when checked at the belt path.
  • Harness straps should be tight enough so that webbing cannot be pinched at the shoulders.
  • Carefully read and follow the installation instructions for all car seats.
  • Consult your vehicle owner’s manual for seat belt and car seat installation information.
  • Contact your car seat manufacturer with any questions regarding your seat.
  • Children under the age of 13 should ride in the back seat.
