Child Safety Redefined: IIHS Reveals Top Car Seats Reducing Injury Risk by 45%
The American Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS), an independent organization, has assessed child car seats available in the American market since 2008. Seats that provide adequate protection in the event of a collision and allow for straightforward and accurate installation across different car types are the most likely to receive the highest rating.
The car seat is the foundation of a child's safety in a car.
