ERIE COUNTY, N.Y. — There are plenty of opportunities this month to get your child's car seat checked this month.
The Traffic Safety Committee is reminding parents of five free safety inspections offered in September. At these checks, certified child passenger safety technicians will inspect car seats using the "Learn, Practice, and Explain" model to help parents.
Advice will be provided on proper instillation and selection of proper car seats.
Free checks are scheduled for:
- Saturday, September 4 (by appointment only) at Catholic Health of Buffalo Regional Administrative Center, 144 Genesee Street, Buffalo
- Tuesday, September 14 at Niagara County Public Safety Training Facility, 5574 Niagara Street Extension, Lockport
