Children
Everyone in
a
vehicle needs protection! That includes
infants and all children smaller than adult size.
In
fact,
the law in every state in the United States and in
every
Canadian province says children
up
to
some
age must
be restrained while in a vehicle.

CAUTION:
Smaller children and babies should always be
restrained in a child
or
infant restraint. The
instructions
for
the restraint will say whether it
is the right type and size for your child.
A
very
young child’s hip bones are
so
small that a
regular belt might
not
stay
low on the hips,
as
it
should. Instead, the belt will likely be over the
child’s abdomen. In a crash, the belt would apply
force right on the child’s abdomen, which could
cause serious or fatal injuries.
So,
be sure that
any child small enough for one is always properly
restrained in a child or infant restraint.
