Car Seat Documentation Needs Improved Toronto Police Say
According to CBC News Toronto, “Nearly 80 per cent of children’s car seats are improperly installed…but Toronto police say manufacturers should share some of the blame. Instruction manuals are often unclear and confusing, and too technically written. Well-intended parents are often unable to follow the directions to properly install the car seats.”
“That tends to be the biggest complaint,” Constable Stephen Burns, of the Toronto Police Traffic Services told CBS. “Trying to read through all those pages of the manual and figure out something that should be so simple.”
According to CBS, one big complaint about child car seat documention is that safety information is often buried deep inside the instructions.
