May 31, 2002, Newsletter Issue #85: Car seat safety
Tip of the Week
Putting your child in a car seat correctly is the most important thing you can do to protect him in case of an accident. Infants must ride in a rear facing car seat until they are 1 year old and 20 pounds. Kids over 1 and between 20 and 20 pounds should be using forward facing seats. Children 4 to 8 and 40 to 80 pounds should sit in a booster seat, using the vehicle´s lap and shoulder belt. Always put car and booster seats in the backseat.
