Okay, I have read crash test info on what is safer when comparing BPB w/ 5 pt harnessed seats. however, we recently had a car accident in our family where dh's cousins children and spouse were killed in an accident. None of the kids were in car seats (ages 9, 7, and almost 6).
The impact of the crash knocked the cab off of the chassis of the truck, causing the first responders to have to climb over the frame to get to the cab.
Now I realize that there is no sure fire way in all crashes to be protected, but I have really been bugged by the idea that if we were involved in a crash of this magnitude, the LATCH might be less safe than a seat belt would be. My girls are both in MA seats in my suburban, 1st bench seat, middle and outboard passenger positions using LATCH. I can shake my suburban shaking my seats and there are permanent indentions from the seats. I know they are tight. I just want covers made of bubble wrap and to know how to best protect them
What do you think?
