Speaking of short car rides. Some people think since they are only going one block, or back into a parking spot, they don’t have to secure their child. Wrong.
A few years ago, a parent was parking their car in the driveway, and thought nothing of it to fasten their 2 year old in a car seat. Another car crashed into them, and the child went through the windshield. Thank God, the child survived, but he sustained major facial traumas, and other serious injuries. It is imperative that a child be properly secured, even when making the “smallest” of trips.
