Booster Seat Education - Cropped Kids-Light Switch
Children prematurely moved to seat belts are 4 times more likely to suffer serious head
injuries during a collision than children in child safety or booster seats. Safety belts
are designed for adults, and children under 4'9" tall should ride with a booster seat.
The booster seat message is a crucial one, NHTSA estimates that up to 90% of children in
the U.S. who should be using a booster seat are not. The goal of this campaign is to
educate parents of children who have outgrown their child safety seat that a booster seat
is a life-saving transition to an adult safety belt.
