Extractions: Child Safety Seat Inspections California Buckle-Up Laws for Parents Babies and small children must ride in car safety seats until they are at least six years old or weigh 60 pounds. The parent gets the ticket if the child is not correctly buckled up. The driver gets the ticket if the parent is not in the car. The ticket could cost up to $270 per child; the fine for a second offense is $675. One point is added to the driving record, which could raise insurance rates. Part of the fine money goes to a special fund to help pay for local car seat education and distribution programs. Safety booster seats are needed for proper belt fit by most children from about age four until at least eight. The shoulder belt must not be placed under the arm or behind the back.

Extractions: For years, parents have struggled with proper child seat installation in their vehicles. For years, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) has struggled with finding a solution to this problem. Currently, approximately 80% of people make at least one significant error in using child restraint seats. In addition, in the past few years there has been mounting frustration with the effort required to properly install a child seat. NHTSA's consumer complaint Hotline received almost 20,000 calls in just the first eight months of 1998 from people about problems associated with correctly installing their child seat. As we approach the 21st century, NHTSA has issued a final rule which requires both vehicle and child seat manufacturers to redesign their respective products. The new design changes will make all child seats compatible with all vehicles. Parents and caregivers will no longer have to deal with the constant readjustment and uncertainty in securing childseats as is the case with the current belt system. Unfortunately, the final rule fails to require the new design for the rear center seating position thus falling short in providing consumers with the safest alternative for this location. The New Design The new child seats will have three attachment points which will secure into anchor points in the car. While the final rule does not require child seats to be equipped with top tethers, almost all child seat models will have one in order to limit the movement of child's head in the event of a crash. The new child seats will also permit installation in older model vehicles which do not have the anchorage system. Parents with older model vehicles will still be able to secure the new childseats using the traditional method of weaving the lap belt through the seat.
Extractions: Full Review No doubt about it, the Britax Roundabout is THE premier child car safety seat to have. Though on the pricey side (average $200) it is well worth it, and will last a good long time. It can accommodate children from 5 to 40 pounds, and is convertible from a rear facing to a front facing safety seat. It is one of the only car seats that will actually seat a child up to 30 pounds in a rear configuration, and it meets and exceeds US safety standards.

Extractions: Motor vehicle crashes are the single largest cause of child fatalities in the country, responsible for more than 1,800 deaths of youngsters age 14 and under each year, according to the National Safe Kids Campaign. The Washington D.C.-based child safety advocacy group estimates another 280,000-plus children are injured each year while riding in vehicles. Yet, safety tests show the risk of injury or death for a child can be reduced as much as 70 percent if an unrestrained child is put into a child safety seat. Problems with child seat use

Childseat When children outgrow forward facing child safety seats, they need to be restrainedin booster seats, until they are big enough to fit properly in an adult http://www.ci.livingston.ca.us/childseat.html
Extractions: RESTRAINT Chief William Eldridge wants you to know that traffic crashes are the leading cause of death for children of every age from 5 to 14 years of age. The reason for this is the most children are unbuckled or improperly restrained in automobiles. When children out-grow forward facing child safety seats, they need to be restrained in booster seats, until they are big enough to fit properly in an adult seat belt. Officers of the Livingston Police Department aggressively enforce child restraint violations, by issuing tickets when violations are observed. The purpose is to save lives. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, putting a child in the back seat instead of the front reduces the risk of death by 27%, whether the car has a passenger air bag or not. The center of the back seat is the farthest away from a possible side impact, so we always try first to install a safety seat there. If you have any questions about child safety seats call the Livingston Police Department, at 209-394-7916.
Extractions: Britax Launches New Child Safety Seat Technology On Expressway ISOFIX Model This month Britax Child Safety, Inc. announces the launch of its new "Expressway ISOFIX" model, the first forward-facing toddler seat in the US with RIGID LATCH connectors. Compared to the now common "flexible" LATCH systems, a "rigid" LATCH system is designed to offer the easiest method of attaching a child restraint to the vehicle. After locating the vehicle LATCH anchor bars, the consumer only needs to pull out the rigid connector assembly and press each of two connectors into engagement, then push the whole childseat back tight into the backrest. As with other LATCH childseats, the Expressway ISOFIX can also be installed using the vehicle seatbelts alone. The Expressway ISOFIX was designed by Britax-Romer in Germany and is shipped partially assembled to Britax Child Safety, Inc. in Charlotte. The ISOFIX name stems from the European acronym for "International Standards Organization fixation." This model goes by the name "Duo ISOFIX" in Europe and so far has been approved for use by 16 manufacturers in 96 different vehicle models. Beyond the easy to use rigid LATCH attachment, the Expressway ISOFIX design includes an innovative "pivot link" mechanism (US Patent # 6,325,454) for reduction of frontal crash loads and head movement.
