Did you know that the NHTSA's (National Highway Traffic Safety Administration) Child Passenger Safety Week is this week? Or that Seat Check Saturday is this Saturday?
National Seat Check Saturday: September 12, 2009
National Child Passenger Safety Week: September 12-18, 2009
- 3 out of 4 carseats are not installed as they should be, putting children at risk.
