AACC Offers Free Child Safety Seat Inspections

If a seat is not installed correctly, it will be removed and a certified technician will show the parent how to install.

How sure are you that your child's car safety seat is installed correctly?

If you're 100 percent sure, then congratulations. But as a new parent, I'm still always double- and triple-checking the seat's connections each time I drive my son around town.

To keep kids safe, and make parents feel at ease, Anne Arundel Community College (AACC) is partnering with MD Kids in Safety Seats to offer the first car seat inspection of the year.

The inspection is being offered on a first-come, first-served basis. If a seat is not installed correctly, it will be removed and a certified technician will show the parent how to install it correctly. The parent must assist with the installation.
