Kids Kept Safe with Tips from Chevy Chase Acura
If you travel with kids, you know how dangerous the road can be
. As a parent we all want our kids to be protected at all times, especially when in a car. Our Chevy Chase Acura dealership is happy to help you keep your kids safe by offering these safety reminders to drivers.Safe in the Back
Especially in light of the many new developments in airbags, it is best to keep kids in the backseat of your Chevy Chase Acura. If airbags deploy, a young child can be severely injured or even killed.
Safest in Seats
Until a child is 8 years old or 80 pounds, a car seat or booster seat is necessary to keep them secure in the vehicle. Select a seat that is appropriate for your child based on height and weight. Check in with your pediatrician for more advice and stop by our Chevy Chase dealership if you need help securing the seats properly in your new Acura.
Don't' Leave Them Alone
A child left alone in a vehicle for only a few minutes can be in serious danger. Young children especially like to pretend drive and can easily cause an accident playing around in an unattended car. Additionally kids left alone for any period of time can be kidnapped or suffer from heatstroke or hypothermia. Take kids with you even if you are just going to be gone a few minutes.
Minimal Junk, Maximum Safety
You travel around with kids long enough and your Acura can quickly become cluttered with toys and trash. Make sure you regularly clean out the interior of your vehicle. In the event of an accident, the toys lying loose in the car can easily fly around and injure a child. Secure all belongings in a bag that can be belted into the car to cut down on the clutter.
