Thousands of children are injured or killed every year because their child’s car seats are not installed properly. It is extremely important to make sure all children riding in your car be properly secured before every trip. Remember, most collisions occur within a mile of the home—so buckle your child in a safety seat for every trip, no matter how short. If you’re not confident of how to properly secure your child in a safety seat, the Morongo Basin CHP office is holding a car seat check-up Saturday, July 27, from 8 to 11 a.m., to ensure your child’s car seat is installed properly at the CHP office on the south side of the highway in Joshua Tree.
