CAR BOOSTER SEATS

If your child is too big for a child car seat, but still too short for adult seat belts, a belt-positioning booster seat is your safest option, according to researchers.

Adult seat belts cut a child's risk of injury by 38%, but using a booster seat with an adult belt cuts that risk by 78%.

Secure children in the back seat of your car whenever possible, where it is safest.
