| Child Car Seat Checks |
On the third Thursday of each month, trained Child Passenger Safety Technicians from
the Moorhead Police Department collaborate with the
Safe Kids Fargo/Moorhead
and
F-M Ambulance Service
to check child passenger safety seats for proper installation.
Checks are conducted between 3:00 and 6:00 p.m.
A recent national survey concluded that well in excess of 50% of the child passenger
safety seats currently installed in motor vehicles were installed incorrectly, thereby
reducing the effectiveness of the safety seat and in some instances increasing the danger
to child passengers in the event of a crash.
The car seat checks are conducted indoors at the offices of F-M Ambulance Service, 2215
18th Street South in Fargo, North Dakota. For more information or to register for a child
passenger safety seat check, contact Safe Kids Fargo/Moorhead at 701-234-7233.
