Whether you’re a new parent, an experienced parent, or even a grandparent, learning about car seat safety is essential. With so many different product lines and types of car seats, it can be an overwhelming process to shop for one. Then when you finally choose the one that fits your budget and lifestyle, you have to learn how to use it. That’s where things can get a little challenging. Here are some things you need to know about car seat safety and how to ensure you’re following the laws.
Understand New Jersey Laws Regarding Car Seats
There are several New Jersey state laws governing how car seats should be installed in vehicles. And the age, height, and weight of the child also determine how the child can be seated in the car seat. Parents often have questions about how to do the right thing with their child’s car seat. You can go to www.newjersey.gov to find specific information about how the state governs car seats and what you need to do. The website will explain what age your child can be before they are forward-facing, how long they need to be rear-facing, and more. It’s a great resource to visit periodically so you can understand and remind yourself about car seat safety.
Have Peace Of Mind With A Car Seat Inspection
When you visit this website www.nj.gov, you can also search for technicians in your area you can visit for a car seat inspection. The technician will thoroughly inspect your car seat and provide you with information on how to keep it installed correctly for the duration your child needs it. Many people discover minor tweaks and adjustments are needed to their car seats, so consider visiting a technician so you can have peace of mind.
Never Take Your Child’s Safety For Granted
Buying the best car seat on the market won’t do much good if it’s not installed properly. Always inspect the car seat before entering your vehicle to ensure it is secured properly. Things can happen that bump it one way or another, so making it a habit to examine the car seat before every drive can ensure your child is always safe. It’s always better to be overly cautious when it comes to your child’s safety rather than taking it for granted.
