Important Safety Warning for Child Safety Seats from the Massachusetts Executive Office of Public Safety

The Executive Office of Public Safety and Security, through the Highway Safety Division, has recently produced an important PSA about child safety seats. During the winter months, children in car seats are often buckled in wearing heavy gear. However, this could prove dangerous and increase the risk of injury in a crash because the seatbelt is not as close to the child. This PSA is designed to remind parents and caregivers to buckle their children in without heavy coats, and then put them on when they go outside.

To increase awareness throughout our communities, please consider watching this 30 second PSA on YouTube. Additionally, please share it with anyone you know that transports children.

Thank you.
