Bannockburn, IL (5/7/18) About 8 out of 10 child passenger safety seats are installed and used improperly, according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), putting children at extreme risk. In the event of a crash due to the fragility of their developing bodies NHTSA recommends parents go to a safety seat inspection to get the car seat installed if they are not sure the seat has been installed correctly or it the child is not properly restrained. Saturday, June 9th is the perfect time to do this.
