  The back seat is the best. It is the safest place to ride for all children under age 13. Not all cars allow for a car seat in every place that has a seat belt.  Check your car owner manual to see where you can put a car seat.

  Be wary of toys in the car. Choose toys that are soft and will not hurt your child in a crash. Secure any loose objects in the car. 

  Wear your seat belt. We know that when adults wear seat belts, kids wear seat belts. So be a good example and buckle up for every ride. Be sure everyone in the vehicle buckles up, too.

  Never leave your child alone in a car, even for a minute.
