Driven to Distraction: Keeping Kids Safe In & Out of Vehicles
February 5, 2020
One area where children are at great risk is in the lack of proper car restraints. In a recent study, the Kiwanis Pediatric Trauma Institute (KPTI) at Tufts Medical Center looked at pediatric patients admitted to the hospital following a car crash over a 13-year period. Not surprisingly, of the 129 children assessed, they found only half of the children were properly restrained in the automobile. Fortunately, there are some simple steps parents can use to help kids stay safe.
