Child safety seats are indispensable

The recent “11.16” school bus accident in Zhengning County, Gansu Province, and the “11.26” school bus accident in Fengcheng City, Liaoning Province, once again triggered a strong concern for the safety of school buses and children. According to statistics, more than 18,500 children between the ages of 0 and 14 die every year in traffic accidents in China. This alarming figure is heartbreaking. Of course, a series of artificial factors such as overloading, drunk driving and drunkenness led to this tragedy, but many people ignored the usefulness of child safety seats.

The protective role of child safety seats for children is very obvious. Many people think that many children are safest when they are traveling by car. It is not true that when a car accident actually occurs, the child can only become a cushion. The momentary force cannot protect children through our hands. Moreover, the safety belt on the vehicle is designed according to the size of an adult, and in the event of an accident, the safety of adults can be protected to the greatest degree. When a child rides a vehicle, the seat belt and the clavicle do not correspond because the height of the child is not enough, and the seat belt cannot be firmly fixed to the seat. Therefore, in the event of an accident, the seat belt can not play a protective role. Studies have shown that the use of child safety seats can reduce child mortality in car crashes by 71%. At present, the use of child safety seats in China is less than 0.1%.

Starting on the 1st of this month, the national standard for child safety seats of motor vehicles is formally implemented. This standard includes the technical requirements for the seat itself and all the requirements for mandatory installation of ISO FIX anchor system devices on vehicles for sale. However, the majority of owners accept this very low, and some owners do not even know how to use it correctly even after they buy it. It is hoped that with the strengthening of the implementation of new standards, the awareness of car owners on car safety will be improved.

The purchase of a suitable child safety seat is also very sophisticated. First of all, it is best to buy a car seat and a car. Many child safety seats are manufactured by car seat manufacturers, so it is best to purchase a child safety seat that is compatible with the car. This will not only facilitate the installation but also ensure safety. Second, when installed, reverse-installation is best reversed. Because in the event of an actual accident, the impact is always directed towards the front part of the vehicle, and the child seat is reversed to disperse the impact. On the other hand, the forward mounting is to distract the child's chest from the seatbelt's seat belt and may cause damage to the child's chest; in addition, the child safety seat should not be placed in the front passenger seat. There is an airbag in the co-pilot position, and the force of the airbag bounce is large enough to let the child have a fatal danger. Of course, it is also important to make sure that the seat belt is in close contact with the child's body. Wear clothes to the child so that the seat belt can be worn. Between two legs. Adjust the seat belt according to the thickness of the child's clothing and keep the seat belt properly. It is not too loose and does not help people.

Safety is inseparable from caution. The use of child safety seats can maximize the protection of children on the car. Even if the road to driving is short, we must also think about the safety of the child. After all, the world does not regret selling drugs.
