Write a commentThe Oswego County Traffic Safety Board is pleased to announce their third car seat check event of 2019.
Come to OCO OPTIONS in Midtown Plaza off East 1st Street and Bridge Street in Oswego from 3:30 to 6:30 p.m. on Thursday. May 30th to have your child’s car seat inspected for proper use and installation. No appointment is necessary for the free event.
“According to recent polling, between 70 and 90 percent of all car seats are installed incorrectly,” said Oswego County Traffic Safety Board Education Coordinator Kyle Boeckmann. “One of our primary goals is to ensure that people are educated about the correct installation and proper use of car seats to ensure our children’s safety.”
Certified car seat technicians from various agencies will perform safety checks to help ensure proper car seat use, answer any caregiver questions, and offer support and education to all attendees.
There is no charge for the service which is presented by the Oswego County Traffic Safety Board through a grant from the New York State Governor’s Traffic Safety Committee.
Boeckmann added, “We would also like to thank the OCO OPTIONs for helping organize this event.”
