Since my Child Passenger Safety Technician class begins tomorrow I thought I would make a series of posts this week with some car seat facts, some I may have known before along with some new things. You may learn something new too!

I want to start with a quote

"If a disease were killing our children at the rate unintentional injuries are, the public would be outraged and demand that this killer be stopped." C. Everett Coop, M.D., Sc.D., former US surgeon general.

The NUMBER 1 RULE of car seat safety: READ the manual, the WHOLE manual! READ your car's manual to make sure there are not any restrictions on where you install your car seat.

    Did you know that most cars do not allow for a center latch install?

    Did you know that the lower latch anchors have a weight limit? 40 or 48lbs depending on your car
