Child Seat Roundup

The AAA of Tidewater Virginia, Drive Safe Hampton Roads, and several other organizations are teaming up for the 23rd Annual Old, Used, Borrowed and Abused Child Safety Seat Round-Up.  During the month of February, take any old, used, or hand-me-down safety seat to any Wal-Mart, DMV center, or AAA office.  The seat will be recycled and disposed of properly.

The reason they do this:  safety.  Experts say car safety seats pose a greater risk of failure in a crash the older they get.  Some of them could have been recalled by the manufacturer.  Hand-me-down seats could have been involved in one crash already and may be damaged.

For more information, call 757-498-2562 or visit the Drive Safe Hampton Roads Facebook page.
