There’s nothing more important when traveling by car than making sure your children are properly seated and belted in before you start. Children of different ages – from newborns and infants to toddlers and pre-teens – all need to have the right seat secured by the seat belt or other restraint system.

Car seats, booster seats, rear facing and front facing can all get complicated and confusing. The Lexington Fire Department can check your car seat and make sure it’s installed correctly.  Just give them a call at (859) 231-5600 and schedule an appointment at one of the many Lexington fire stations.

Here’s a good guide on how to pick a car seat and make sure your children are safe and sound when you travel by car.
