Parents and car seat safety

While parents show great concern for their child’s safety, they may not pay proper attention to the use of a car seat. Perhaps this springs from the idea that a car is a safe environment, a steel room on wheels. Unfortunately, every year children are injured or die when a child seat is used incorrectly or not at all.

 

This short clip from The Pregnancy Show cites the alarming statistic that more than 95% of car seats are installed incorrectly. The long distances and high speeds traveled in Montana make this particularly relevant.

 

Is your child's car seat installed properly?

A real life story of a crash involving two children introduces the topic of car seat installation. Improper installation can lead to injury or death of a child.

A correctly installed car seat that is properly fitted to the child offers the best protection. Some Billings, Montana car dealers and law enforcement offices will check to see that standards are met and teach parents how to take the car seat out and reinstall it. Because auto accidents cause the highest number of serious childhood injuries and death, parents are well advised to understand and use the information available.

 

Anderson Cooper 360 - CNN Allstate - Part 1

In this first of two parts, Anderson Cooper hosts a CNN expose on how insurance companies try to pressure accident victims into settling for much less than they are entitled to. By not paying reasonable amounts on claims, they force injured parties to retain a lawyer and pursue the matter in court.

 

The strategy, illustrated by Allstate’s actions, is becoming common in the industry and amounts to using the court system as a way to escape their obligations. Mr. Cooper tells how even with a personal injury attorney, victims may suffer character assassination attempts by insurance companies and use unfair tactics to influence jury awards.

 

Anderson Cooper 360 - CNN Allstate - Part 2

This second part of a CNN report on auto insurance companies shows how they try to avoid paying claims in full by using the legal system against their policy holders. As Anderson Cooper puts it in the clip, “Accident victims across the country are fighting back at insurance companies they thought would protect them.”

Although Allstate is featured in the case presented, other companies are using the same techniques. This makes having your case evaluated by an experienced accident attorney more important than ever.

 

Car Accident Crash-Test Lexus IS

With one of the highest safety ratings in the industry, the Toyota Lexus is a good example of what can be accomplished in the field. This video documents, in slow motion, several different crash scenarios and how the car and occupants respond. The extreme sideways motion during side impacts and the deployment of driver and passenger side-impact air bags highlights the high standards in this vehicle.

Many vehicles are only tested either with front end collisions or with side impacts that are broadly spread out. The footage here shows how the car responds to a point impact, as when a vehicle strikes a pole or a tree.
