This week is Child Passenger Safety Week. In 2017, NHTSA data showed that 37 percent of the children killed in car crashes were unrestrained. California law requires that all children under 8 years of age be properly restrained in an appropriate child safety seat in the back seat of a vehicle. Children under 2 years of age must ride in a rear-facing car seat in the back seat. Useful information about the proper seat choice and installation tips are available at: chp.ca.gov
