In recognition of Child Passenger Safety Week, which runs from September 21 to September 27, the Mount Pleasant Police and Fire Departments are providing a valuable service to the community by offering free checks of children’s car seats. Parents and guardians are encouraged to visit either department during this week to ensure that their car seats are installed correctly and safely.
Additionally, the Columbia Police Department is actively promoting the importance of proper car seat usage. They recommend that parents access the website CarSeatSafety.kids to verify that their children are using car seats that are appropriate for their age, size, and developmental stage. The department emphasizes that utilizing the correct car seat at the right time is crucial for enhancing child safety during travel, ultimately saving lives.
