Everyone
m a vehic1.e 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.
Smaller Children and Babie-s
Smaller children and babies s.hould 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 abd,omen. 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.
