Car Safety Musts for Families

Keeping even the shortest drives safe for babies and kids

 

Does chauffeuring your child feel like a part-time job? It basically is, a recent survey says: 90 percent of parents and guardians report spending up to 20 hours per week in their car with kids. Keep that family time safe with these tips on car seat and driving safety.

Choosing a Car Seat

Car safety for babies and kids begins at birth—literally. Most hospitals and birthing centers won't let parents leave for home unless they show they have a properly functioning and installed car seat.

Trying to choose the right model for your child? Check out our Definitive Guide to Buying a Car Seat and the Safety Seat Ease of Use Ratings by the National Highway and Traffic Safety Association (NHTSA). Also, take a peek at which models have been recalled recently.
