Safety
Taking the utmost care when transporting children is critical to avoiding
the potential risks that exist on the road. That's why we urge that you
use safe, well-maintained vehicles and make sure that all passengers use
seatbelts or properly restrained car seats to reduce these risks.
Here
are some important tips:
- When transporting
children in your vehicle, it is mandatory that every child under 60
pounds or under 6 years old is securely restrained in a car seat. Children
over 60 pounds or over 6 years old must be restrained by a seat belt.
- Parents
must sign and give you a permission form before you ever take the children
out of your home.
- Emergency
ID forms, including parent signed medical consent forms, must be with
you at all times.
- You must
always carry a first aid kit when taking children outside of the house.
- Children
under the age of 12 should not ride in the front seat of a vehicle that
has a passenger side air bag.
