A1) Motor vehicle crashes are very common & are a leading cause of death in children. Car seats/restraints protect children by preventing ejection, guarding the head, neck & spine during a sudden stop/swerve/crash, & absorbing some of the shock of a crash #CheckBeforeYouChange

A3) Children are often moved to the next car seat stage prematurely based on age, weight/height minimums, perceived level of comfort, peer influences, etc. For optimal child safety, families should maximize the amount of time spent in each car seat stage #CheckBeforeYouChange
