Tips to protect children in vehicles
The National Center for Injury Prevention and Control offers safety guidelines for young riders. Children 12 and under should ride in the back seat. Infants up to 1 year and under 20 pounds must use rear facing seats. Never place an infant in a front seat if an air bag deploys. Ages 1 to 4 and 20 to 40 pounds should use forward facing seats. Read manuals and consult a trained technician to install seats. Children 4 to 8 over 40 pounds but under 4 feet 9 inches should use booster seats for proper seat belt fit.
