 Today is the start of the Central Region Road Safety Week. On Tuesday we are focusing on child restraints. It is important that children up to the age of seven are restrained correctly in vehicles. Until the age of six months, children must be in a rear wood facing seat. After six months they can have their seats upgraded to a forward facing seat like this one here. It is important that as they grow, the seat belts are adjusted to their shoulder height. They need to be in this seat until they reach the age of four years. After the age of four years they can go into a booster seat where they can use a normal seat belt or a H harness. Fines are given to the driver of the vehicle for every unrestrained child in a car. The current fine is $330 and three points. Child safety in our vehicles is very important.
