Register your Child Passenger Safety Week Event online! Pennsylvania is joining States across the country in celebrating Child Passenger Safety Week 2024 and Seat Check Saturday. Community car seat check events educate parents on the correct selection and use of car seats for a child’s age weight and size. Help us get the word out. Register your car seat check event scheduled during the week of September 15 – 21, 2024. Car seat checks that are registered will be shared with the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation, provided for media releases, upon request, and posted on PA TIPP website calendar of events. PA TIPP does not need to be involved in the community car seat check event, we are merely compiling the list of events to be shared. If you are interested in receiving the list of events, please email aosterhuber@paaap.org.

Child Passenger Safety Week (CPS Week) focuses attention on the need to secure children as safely as possible. The Pennsylvania 2024 theme, “Love Me, Buckle Me…. Every Trip, Every Time, Every Vehicle” highlights the importance of choosing an appropriate car seat for every child and using it correctly every time. The car seat check events scheduled throughout the week provide hands-on guidance to caregivers on the correct selection, installation and use of an appropriate car seat, booster seat, or seat belt based on the child’s age, weight, height, and developmental needs.

For more information about the correct selection, installation, and use of a car seat or to request materials visit www.pakidstravelsafe.org or call 1-800 CAR BELT.
