🚗 Is Your Child’s Car Seat Installed Correctly? 🚸
Did you know that only 1 in 5 car seats in Connecticut is used properly? Ensuring your child’s safety while traveling starts with choosing and using the right car seat or booster seat.
✅ Connecticut law requires children to ride in a rear-facing car seat until they are at least 2 years old and 30 pounds.
✅ Once they outgrow their rear-facing seat, children must use a forward-facing car seat with a 5-point harness until age 5 and 40 pounds.
✅ After outgrowing a forward-facing seat, they must use a booster seat until they are at least 8 years old and 60 pounds.
✅ A proper seat belt fit is crucial—if the belt does not sit properly across the shoulder and lap, a booster seat is still needed!
Take the 5-Step Booster Seat Test!
🔹 Does your child sit all the way back against the seat?
🔹 Do their knees bend comfortably at the seat’s edge?
🔹 Does the seat belt cross the shoulder correctly (between the neck and arm)?
🔹 Is the lap belt low, touching the thighs?
🔹 Can your child sit like this for the whole trip?
If you answered “no” to any of these, your child still needs a booster seat!
📍 Want to be sure your car seat is installed correctly? Find a local fitting station or get more information at www.ctsafekids.org
