Smaller Children and Babies
Everyone
in
a
vehicle needs protection! That includes
infants and all children smaller than adult size. Neither
the distance traveled nor the age and size of the traveler
changes the need, for everyone, to use safety restraints.
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.
Children who are up against, or very close to, any
air
bag when
it
inflates can be seriously injured
or killed. This is true even if your vehicle has
reduced-force frontal
air
bags.
Air
bags plus
lap-shoulder belts offer the best protection for
adults, but not for young children and infants.
Neither the vehicle’s safety belt system nor
its
air
bag system
is
designed for them. Young children
and infants need
the
protection
that
a
child
restraint system can provide. Always secure
children properly in your vehicle.
