Until now we knew the danger of installing the baby seat in the front seat of the car without deactivating the airbag. A new RACE study in collaboration with the Spanish Association of Pediatrics warns of the risk of using this seat for the seat, even having previously deactivated the airbag.
After causing a series of accidents in the car, with impacts from all possible sides, they have shown that the front seat is the most dangerous of all. It turns out that it is the most used when placing the silita and also installed in the opposite direction to the march.
If an accident occurs, the risk of the child hitting the dashboard would be quite high.
One of the important conclusions of this study is that the side airbags in the back of the car are very safe and effective when it comes to protecting the smallest broken ones from blows and cuts.
According to RACE the best place to install the child's seat is the rear center seat with the proviso that the belt has three anchor points and not two like those of "airplane type". They also recommend keeping the child in the opposite direction as long as possible.
It is shocking that after demonstrating that new child restraint systems have reduced injuries to children by 75 percent, 20 percent of parents still do not use any protection.
60 percent of children who died last year in a traffic accident did not use a chair specific to their age.
To raise awareness among the entire population, RACE, PLAY and the Spanish Association of Pediatrics have launched the III campaign "They need you, Protect you!".
