For most basic types of child restraints, there are
many different models available. When purchasing a
child restraint, be sure it is designed
to
be used
in a motor vehicle. If it is, the restraint will have a
label saying that
it
meets federal motor vehicle
safety standards.
The restraint manufacturer’s instructions that come
with the restraint state the weight and height
limitations for a particular child restraint. In addition,
there are many kinds of restraints available for
children with special needs.

port,
including support for the head and neck. This
is necessary because
a
newborn infant’s neck
is weak and its head weighs
so
much
compared with the rest
of
its body. In
a
crash,
an infant in a rear-facing seat settles into the
restraint,
so
the crash forces can be
distributed across the strongest part of an
infant’s body, the back and shoulders. Infants
always should be secured in appropriate infant
restraints.
