Yahoo offers tips on how to protect your child from airbag injuries
by Mike Adams, NaturalNews Editor
Yahoo cautions readers to strap children into cars with safety belts and keep their seat at a safe distance from the dashboard, to minimize the potential impact of an airbag.
- Although air bags are extremely effective in saving adult lives, they often do not have the same effect for children.
- * Secure the child in a restraint system that is correct for his size.
- * Move the front seat as far back from the dashboard as possible.
- * Do not allow the child to lean forward toward the dashboard.
- * Never allow a rear-facing infant to ride in front of a passenger air bag.
- To ensure utmost safety, however, children should be seated in the back seat of the car, protected by safety seats.
