Car Seat question?.......?

what is the safest car seat position to have your toddler in your car? either in the middle or on the passenger backseat?

My ex-sister-in-law preferred to have her son in the middle. Her thought process was that if she were hit, he would be safe.

I, however, always have my son behind the passenger seat. It's easier for me to see (I don't have to turn too much to see him).

I'm not too sure if there is a legal protocol for this particular situation. I guess it's whatever makes you feel more comfortable.

I have seen a lot more people put there baby in the middle of the back seat. In case of collision on either side.

The safest place in the car is the middle back seat. And if hes in a car seat then he wont fly towards the windshield.

Middle position, because of the possibility of side impact from either side.

In the middle. It's like de'ja'vou. Someone yesterday had the same question with the same worry.

Have a certified car seat installer install the car seat and show you how snug to buckle the little tyke in. After a meeting at the fire house with the installer, I always feel like my kids are so anchored into their car seat which is so anchored into the car that they won't go anywhere.


UCANTCME
May 7, 2008 -- The safest spot for a baby's car seat is in the center of the back seat rather than on the sides, according to a new study.

I would say, the passenger backseat, facing backwards for children under 18 months. that way you will be able to monitor and be in reach of the child more easily..hope this helps
