Children Not fastened Properly in Child Seats
I read a post on the Department of Transportation's website that said three out of four children are not properly secured in their seats. A child may not be safe in a vehicle for several reasons including: they are not in a child seat or not in a child seat appropriate for the child's age, weight or height, the child is not tightly secured in the seat, the seat is not properly secured to the vehicle, the child is facing forward when he/she should be facing backwards and other reasons.
If you are unsure of how to properly secure a child or a child seat in a vehicle, there are child seat safety inspection locations in Florida and throughout the country to assist people with child seats. Inspection locations can be found at this website.
