Child Passenger Seat Checks
Using a child safety seat may seem easy enough, but according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, an estimated three out of four parents do not properly use child restraints. Fortunately, AAA has certified car seat technicians who can help. Contact the AAA Traffic Safety Educator to schedule an appointment.
