Free child seat inspection coming to Russell Springs

By Amber Hale

The Kentucky Transportation Cabinet’s Office of Highway Safety will be conducting a free child safety seat inspection at Russell Family Medical Center, 404 Steve Dr., Russell Springs, KY, on Friday, Oct. 26 from 1pmCT to 3pmCT.

Nationally certified child passenger safety technicians will educate participants on correct installation and usage and check for recalls or damage to the seat.

Attendees should allow approximately 20 minutes per seat.


National Highway Traffic Safety Administration statistics show over 90% of child safety seats in the United States are installed incorrectly. When used correctly, child safety seats are 71% effective in reducing infant fatalities, 67% effective in reducing the need for hospitalization and 54% effective in reducing fatalities for children 1 to 4.
