SAFETY
Never hold a baby in arms when riding in a motor vehicle. In this position the baby
could be thrown against the dashboard, windscreen or other occupant and suffer
serious injury or death.
When riding in a motor vehicle never nurse a baby and use the same seat belt for
both of you. In this position the baby or child could be crushed.
Children must be secured in appropriate restraints at all times when the car is in
motion. Children travelling unrestrained and standing up in the car are in danger of
serious injury or death. Traffic regulations in all states require children to be secured
in child restraints or adult seat belts where available.
Plan your trip with frequent comfort stops to reduce stress on babies, young children
and driver. Keep the car well ventilated to reduce heat stress. Two car windows
should be kept open to maintain a good flow of fresh air if air conditioning is not
used.
Never leave babies or toddlers in a stationary car in the sun because of the risk of
heat exhaustion.
Ensure babies and toddlers are adequately shaded from direct sunlight through side
or rear windows.
Be on guard against carbon monoxide poisoning which can occur through only a
slight leak in the exhaust system while travelling in a closed car.
Securely stow all heavy objects, feeding bottles, etc. that could become missiles
during an accident and cause injury to any occupant.
