Download Secure Them for Life

It’s the law
In a vehicle, children whose sitting height is less than 63 cm (between the
seat and the top of the head) must be secured in an appropriate car seat,
adapted to their weight and height. Offenders face a fine of $80 to $100 and
three demerit points.
In a taxi, if you are unable to use a child safety seat, children must wear
the seat belt as soon as they are able to maintain an upright position.
Just having the seat is not enough: you also have to properly choose it,
install it and secure your child in it.
Whether your children are big or small,
their safety in the car is your responsibility.
Did you know?
Every year in Québec, over 1,000 child passengers
age 9 or under are victims of road accidents. When
child safety seats are used correctly, the risk of death
or serious injury is reduced by up to 70%.
