10. Girl (about 4) in HBB without seatbelt threaded through belt guide, seatblet sliding off her shoulder.
9. girl (about 5) in HBB with shoulder portion of seatbelt behind her arm, laying
across her stomach while driving on the freeway
8. Way expired old funky Fisher Price seat ( probably circa 1990's) in nanny's car picking
up one of DD's classmates (no one in it at the time, hopefully not for the girl
she was picking up as she's likely outgrown it too)
7. Two Britax seats installed in a minivan of another mom I know from DD's school.
Both are installed FF in recline mode on top of over reclined captain's chair
seats in the minivan. Both kids are over 3 yrs old and approx 40 lbs. The
carseats are probably at a 45 degree angles FF!
6. Carseat for a girl, approx age 3, installed in the front seat. Grandma riding in
the backseat.
5. A boy riding in a carseat that was so small for him height wise that his WHOLE HEAD was above the
shell!
4. I walked by a carseat in Target parking lot that was installed in a car so loosely that it was halfway tipped over.
3. Walking DD home from school I walked by a car with a carseat that was installed FF with the base completely on
top of a folded blanket that was about 3-4" thick.
2. In two different parking lots this week I've seen parents of preschool age children just plop their kids in the
backseat with no carseat, booster, or even seatbelt, and drive away....
1. Today I saw a small sedan driving by with 4 adults and one child. The child, about 2yrs old, was sitting in the
middle of the backseat in an infant bucket, no harness, forward facing with the lap belt across him.
