BROWNSVILLE, Texas – Brownsville families attended a hands-on child passenger safety event at the Southmost Library during National Child Passenger Safety Week.
The library partnered with the Brownsville Police Department, the Texas Department of Transportation and Driscoll Health to offer car seat inspections, demonstrations and one-on-one assistance.
Parents and caregivers were able to have car seats checked by safety professionals, learn how to install and use them and ask questions about selecting a seat appropriate for a child’s age, size and needs.
The event also included activities designed to engage children and families. Safety officials encouraged caregivers to regularly check seats to ensure they are installed correctly and children are properly restrained.
