​Safety Statistics Highlight
-
Incorrect Installation Rates: Studies have shown that incorrect use of child restraints is a common issue. Around 90% of the seats checked during National Road Safety Week in May 2023 needed adjustments or reinstallation [1]. This misuse can significantly decrease the effectiveness of the restraint in protecting the child during a crash.
-
Leading Cause of Death: Road transport accidents are the leading cause of death for children aged 1 to 14 in Australia, underscoring the critical importance of proper restraint use [2].
-
Increased Risk: The correct use of a child car restraint reduces the risk of death in a motor vehicle accident by up to 75% [3].
