Is your child’s car restraint fitted correctly?

Correctly fitted and used child restraints and booster seats play an important part in protecting children from serious injury or death in the event of a crash.

Yet about 70% of child restraints aren’t installed correctly.

It is the law for all children up to the age of 7 to be in a child restraint or booster seat when travelling in a vehicle.

Children need different restraints as they grow. To ensure your children get maximum protection, their restraint must be:

  • the right size for the child
  • correctly fitted to the vehicle
  • properly adjusted and fastened
  • compliant with Australian Standard AS/NZS 1754.
