TXDOT TO HOST SEAT BELT/BOOSTER SEAT EVENT

  

The TXDOT Bryan District is hosting an upcoming car seat and booster seat inspection event.

The event is being held on Thursday, February 13, from 3–5:30PM at the Washington County Maintenance Office, located at 1821 Highway 105 in Brenham.

Motor vehicle crashes are a leading cause of death among children. While most people believe their children are properly buckled up, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration points out that 46% of all car seats are misused.

The Traffic Safety Administration said that the best way to keep young children safe in your vehicle is to make sure they’re properly buckled up in a car seat.

That means selecting a car seat that’s appropriate for a child’s age and size and installing it correctly.

Child Passenger Safety Technicians will provide education on proper usage and installation of car seats, along with inspection of the families’ current seats.

Please call (979) 402-4785 to schedule an appointment. Children must be present.
