The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation, Pennsylvania State Police and the Pennsylvania Traffic Injury Prevention Project are encouraging drivers to take advantage of safety seat check resources across the state as the agencies mark National Child Passenger Safety Week from Sept. 19 to 25.

Technicians will be conducting free child seat fitting events across the state. Caregivers can have their children’s car seats checked for suitability, receive instruction on the proper installation, have seat(s) installed, learn to properly harness a child in a seat and check seats for recalls.

A full list of local free car seat fitting events is available on PSP’s website: www.pakidstravelsafe.org.
