Proper transport of children

Proper transport of
children
For the best protection in the event of
a collision, all the vehicle's occupants
must travel seated and protected by all
the suitable restraining systems. The
seat belts are designed to be used by
persons whose physical characteristics
(age, height, weight) are provided for
by established legislation in each
country. Anyone who does not comply
with these provisions may not travel in
the passenger seat.
This also applies to children. Their
heads are proportionally heavier and
larger than those of adults, while their
bones and muscles are relatively
undeveloped. For children to be
restrained correctly in the event of a
collision, suitable restraining or safety
systems must be used.
No child under 12 should
travel in the front passenger
seat.
We recommend to carry
children using suitable child-
restraint systems and always
in the back seat, as this is the most
protected position in the event of a
collision.
Children must never travel
seated on a passenger's lap. A
child weighs very little until a
collision occurs! In a collision, a child
becomes so heavy it is impossible to
hold onto him or her. For example, in a
collision at only 25 mph (40 km/h), a
child weighing 12 lb (5.5 kg) exerts a
force of 240 lb (110 kg) against the
arms of the person holding him or her.
Children must always be protected by
a suitable restraining system when
travelling.
Children who are resting on
the airbag or are too close to it
when it is activated, may be
seriously injured. The airbags and
pretensioners offer suitable protection
for adults and teenagers, but not for
children and babies. Neither the seat
belts or the airbags are designed for
them.
A child traveling in a
rearward-facing seat could be
seriously injured by an airbag
being activated. This could happen
because the seat back of the child's
seat may be positioned extremely
close to the airbag at the moment it is
inated.
The structure of a child's body
is completely different from
adult's or a teenager's (who
the seat belts are designed for). A
child's hips are so small that seat belt
will not stay in the correct position on
them. The belt may rise up on the
child's stomach and, in the event of a
collision, cause serious internal
injuries.
