Montlick & Associates’ Georgia Car Seat Safety Resources Links Page
Keeping abreast of car seat safety information is important to ensuring you are taking the right steps when placing your child in a car seat. Children are always vulnerable, but are even more vulnerable at the age when they must be placed in a car seat. As such, the more you know when purchasing and using a car seat, the more likely it is that you are using a car seat as intended.
In order to gain as much knowledge as possible, you should consider utilizing any one or more of the following resources, that are important for both parents and caregivers in the state of Georgia:
