Safe Practices

*

EVERYONE rides buckled up or the vehicle DOES

NOT GO! Make NO EXCEPTIONS for adults or children!

- If someone unbuckles, the vehicle

STOPS! Being

firm and consistent will result in fewer discipline

problems as children grow older. An unrestrained

person can be thrown into and injure other

passengers.

-

NEVER try to tend to a crying child’s needs while

driving. Never take a child out of a child restraint for

comforting while the vehicle is moving.

*

Put heavy or sharp items in the trunk. Loose items can

be deadly in a crash.

*

If you need to use a blanket in cold weather, put the

child in the restraint and cover both with the blanket.
