When can my kid ditch the car seat? 

Car seats are a very important safety feature for all child passengers, and they can often be the difference between life and death. Parents often have the question of when it’s safe for their child to ditch a car seat, but it can often be confusing as car seat laws are different from the recommended age. Carma Hansen of Safe Kids Grand Forks explains when a parent can move their child out of a car seat. 

Hansen also goes over Safe Kids Grand Forks’  general car seat guidelines, as they can also help you determine if your kid is ready to move out of a car seat.

If you are still unsure about your child’s car seat fit, Hansen says Safe Kids Grand Forks has resources available to you.
