SAFETY STUDY--CHILD PASSENGER SAFETY SYMPOSIUM: WAYS TO INCREASE USE AND DECREASE MISUSE OF CHILD RESTRAINTS

The report contains the transcript of the general sessions of the Safety Board's Symposium on Child Passenger Safety, held in Washington, D.C. on January 28, 1985. These sessions, and the discussions of six groups that considered various aspects of the problem and made reports at the afternoon general session, focused on ways to increase use of child restraints and to reduce their misuse. The report also contains considerable reference material which should be useful to child passenger safety advocates. Appendixes present information on child restraint protection laws, child passenger fatalities by State, current models of child restraints, and State Child Passenger Safety Associations.
