Florida's biggest problem when it comes to child passenger safety is non-use of restraint systems. Over 75% of children under the age of 15 were unrestrained in fatal crashes. Either they were not restrained in child safety seats or they were not wearing seat belts. When used correctly, child restraints and seat belts can reduce injuries and fatalities by 50-70%. Unfortunately, many children still ride unrestrained in vehicles despite the existence of child restraint laws in all 50 states. Drivers have a responsibility to ensure that all passengers, especially infants and children, are properly and securely restrained in the vehicle.

Child safety seats have been around for many years, but due to the numerous of models available and the various vehicle seat belt systems, it can still be confusing for parents when it comes to choosing and installing a child safety seat in their vehicle.

To have your child's car seat inspected by a Certified Technician please call ahead to make an appointment.

Expectant mothers are advised to have the car seat checked 2 months prior to the baby's due date.

All car seat checks are by appointment only
