This week is Child Passenger Safety Week, a good time to double-check the one thing protecting your child from a serious car crash: their car seat.
A seat only does its job when it is installed correctly, yet research shows that car seats are often installed incorrectly, such as a loose harness or a base that shifts more than an inch along the belt path. Since Connecticut's requirements also change with your child's age, weight, and height, what was correct last year may not be true today.
The easiest way to be sure is to have your car seat checked, and many local fire and police stations will inspect yours for free.
And if an unsafe driver ever causes your child injury, we are here to help your family through it. See how we can help: www.sorrentinolegal.com/contact-us/
