(Apparently the thing I want even more than a sysadmin is a science writer. Who knew?) One page, two days.
There's a lot of desire for kids to be in car seats for a long time. I've also heard that there isn't much science to back that up.
- What studies show that backseated restrained toddlers/preschoolers are less safe than backseated car-seated ones?
- How much is the effectiveness of a carseat reduced by its exposure to force/ age/ill-fit/poor installation? (If getting thrown around does make the car seat less safe, what's up with checking them as luggage on airplanes?)
Is there a scientific basis for the legislation of extended car seat/booster usage?
