Ok, so they were having a seat check in a town about an hour fro m where I live so I decided since I needed to do some shopping anyway, we would go. Well turns out I ended up educating the cop/ tech . He checked DD's seat & asked if I installed it myself. I said yep & he said that's really good. Ok then he goes over to DS & says you know since he's over a year old (17mo). We recommend them be forward facing... WTF?! I said yeah I know he can legally be forward facing, but rear facing is much safer & that is why I specifically bought his seat to RF to 40 lbs. He said well as long as he's happy & comfortable RF then it's fine. Facepalm! He tried to tell me that I couldn't RF tether so I had to explain that yes I could. Britax is one of the few seats you can do that with. He said that 90% of people who come in their seats are installed wrong & I was one of the 10% that had it right.
