Opportunities to check your child 's car seat are coming up in Buncrana, Ballybofey, Letterkenny and Donegal Town
You have to put your child in a properly fitted car seat or booster seat when travelling, no matter how short the journey is. This is the law.
A booster seat raises your child up high enough so that the seatbelt is positioned correctly on their body.
Your child is much less likely to be killed or injured in a crash if they are in a car seat or booster.
The safest way for children to travel is in a car seat in the back seat of a car.
To help people get to grips with proper car seat installation the check it fits team from Road Safety Authority Ireland is back in Donegal this month.
This fantastic expert-led service is free of charge and you will leave it feeling reassured that your child is adequately protected in the event of a collision.
It only takes 10-15 minutes and everyone is encouraged to avail of the opportunity to attend.
