Tips for Keeping Children Safe in Cars

There are many steps you can take to keep your children safer in a motor vehicle. These include:

• No matter the age or size, always have your kids buckle up.
• All kids under the age of 13 should only sit in the back seat.
• Infants, toddlers, and children under a certain weight should always ride in car seats. Be sure to check the legal safety requirements in your area.
• Avoid sudden braking or lane changes that can jerk a small child around.
• Never put a child in a front with air bag protection. Because children are shorter than adults, the airbag will not be effective and instead can suffocate the child.

By following these steps you can help protect those you love and care about.
