Orlando, FL - 1/19/2007 -- AAA recognizes that parents and other child care providers may be confused by recent publicity surrounding child safety seats.
For this reason, AAA's safety experts want to emphasize that the safest place for a child in a motor vehicle is always in a child safety seat, in the back seat of a vehicle. Car seats have been shown to reduce infant fatalities in crashes by 71 percent. According to NHTSA, nearly 400 children under the age of 5 were saved by the use of child safety seats in 2005. In selecting a car seat, consumers should use a seat that fits their vehicle, fits their child and will be installed and used correctly every time. For more information on the selection and installation of child safety seats, contact AAA, call 1-866-SEATCHECK, or log on to www.seatcheck.org
