While road safety is a potent problem in India, the car seat culture is still foreign to childcare and health in our country. In fact, very often children aren\u2019t even strapped to regular seat belts while driving. Of course, regular seat belts can do precious little though as the height of children is much shorter compared to a normal seat belt design.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There are enough and more reasons for the lack of use of car seats, the primary among them being the fact that there is no law to enforce their use. Also, the fact that people aren\u2019t really aware of the benefits of child car seats further aggravates the problem. A part of the issue perhaps is also to do with the high emotional quotient where people are loathe to put their child in the car seat, preferring to hold on to the child themselves. The fact however is that the love and concern for the child should actually mean investing in a car seat that goes a long way in ensuring child safety in case of an untoward accident. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Remember that when you hold your baby in your arms, he or she is at risk of flying off your arms in case of an accident. Head and spinal injuries are extremely common car crash injuries for babies especially those under the age of 1. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
