Children Everyone in a vehicle needs protection! That includes infants and all childrensmaller than adult size. Neither the distancetraveled nor the age and size of the traveler changes the need, for everyone, to use safety restraints. In fact,the law in every state in the United States and in every Canadian province says children up to some age must be restrained while in avehicle. Smaller Children andBabies Children who are up against, or very close to, any air bag when it inflates can be seriously injured or killed. This is true even ifyour vehicle has reduced-force frontal air bags. Air bags plus lap-shoulder belts offerthe best protection for adults, but not for young children and infants. Neither the vehicle's safety belt system its air nor bag system is designed for them. Young children and infants need the protection that a child restraint system can provide. Alwayssecure children properly in your vehicle.
