I am not pointing my finger at anyone specifically, and I am not saying it is all the commenters, either. But for some reason, when a thread regarding some family's tragedy goes on and on about what seat it was and which belt path was used, and which slots should have been used, whose fault it was, would the baby have lived if it were in the car, etc.- it just seems wrong to me. Wrong because some accidents are just not survivable- and wrong because again, human nature makes us want to reassure ourselves (falsely) that somehow we are doing all we can to be spared such a tragedy ourselves. Those photos are awful- truly nightmare inspiring, at least in my mind, and my instincts tell me to say a prayer for the family and leave it at that. Obviously, I know this is a car safety related board, and we are all here to do the best we can in regards to our families' safety on the roads and to learn what we can-but this accident I am referring to -looks like she would have needed a tank to protect any occupants in that instant- so all your car seat ponderings are a moot isssue.
My vent for the day.
