This week is Child Passenger Safety Week. Every day across America, parents and caregivers drive young children to and from school, daycare, the store, and around town in car seats and boosters. Yet nearly half of all car seats are installed incorrectly, which means your child may not be traveling as safely as possible.
The goal of Child Passenger Safety Week is to make sure your child is in the correct car seat, that it’s properly installed and used, and that it’s registered with its manufacturer to ensure you receive important safety updates.
Here is a list of inspection stations; please note that all site inspections are by appointment only.
