Drive a child unbelted and without a legal child restraint – how selfish can you get?
Planning to take the kids out this Easter? There is nothing more shocking or selfish than driving a child unbelted and without a legal child restraint! In a crash at 30mph, an unbelted child will turn into a human missile. It is likely they will sustain life-threatening physical injuries, including brain injuries, and that other people in the vehicle will be killed or seriously injured.
So make sure your child always wears a seatbelt and a legal child restraint – or it could haunt you for the rest of your life!
