As a parent, the safety of your baby is your number one concern. Driving with your child can be especially scary for some parents. A proper baby car seat could be what saves your child’s life in an accident.
But only if you use it correctly.
A father in Memphis nearly learned this lesson the hard way. David Boyer had been running errands with his son, William, in the back seat of his car when he received a very important message.
