For anyone with kids... IMPORTANT

[CSP]

I know there's a dedicated video section, but I found this to be an eye opener!

When I was growing up I remember being in a 5 point harness in the car when I was really little and then went to a "booster" seat...

OK - didn't know. I've been on JC for a couple of years and never seen it. Chances are the same goes for others too.

How sad...

I hope the stupid old bitch that ran the red light is in jail. ****ing ****s me to no end how old people can cause so many accidents yet it is the younger generation in the spotlight.

Sorry to go off topic

Considered too complex for idiots to free themselves. Even though racing harnesses have a quick release to be used post crash, people would panic and end up trapped.

Hey Guys

I have seen this video elsewhere too and agree with the sentiment of the thread so far. The most silly thing about is that you can get a "Booster" seat with a 5 point harness. This enables a child up to 7 years old to be safely secured in the car at a cost of about $140.

So expensive was the cost of the booster + harness, my wife and I pondered the purchase for all of 0 seconds, gladly accepting that our precious child would be far safer than using a seatbelt.

All 3 of our kids will be in 5 point harnesses with a booster until 7 for the very reasons shown in the video.

It is a pity that when you have kids, parents are not educated by anyone on this sort of thing, could save plenty of kid’s lives that way.

It is simply wrong to have to bury your own children as a consequence of stupidity before they have had a chance to shine. Will be giving them a big hug when I get home tonight.

C,mon as any parent knows, a real hardarse is someone who has to change a dirty nappy still half asleep @ 3 in the morning

[Torquative]
