In the photo, a car is driving on the highway with a sign on the pro sign, and in the passenger seat, an infant is lying in the seat, without any protection, and is sleeping. This photo is suspected to have been taken by Bao's mother sitting in the reclined passenger seat, and she also posed as scissorhands while taking pictures.
After the picture came out, most netizens expressed concern about the safety of their children, feeling that the parents were too worried.
As the incident fermented and spread, the car brand quickly paid attention to the matter and issued a statement at the first time. The statement is to the effect that it firmly opposes such dangerous behaviors and calls on all car owners to take care of children's travel safety in the right way.
How important a child seat is
I would like to remind all drivers that it is really important to have the right car seat for your child. Because when the vehicle is in an accident, there will be a great impact, at this time, whether you hold the child in your arms or wear a seat belt, it will not protect the child, but will increase the injury to them.
Only the correct use of child safety seats is the most effective way to protect children's safety. The data shows that without a child safety seat in the car, the mortality rate of child traffic accidents is 8 times that of the installation, and the injury rate is 3 times that of the latter.
On June 1, 2021, the newly revised Law on the Protection of Minors will be officially implemented, and the use of child safety seats will be included in national legislation for the first time. When children ride in the car, they need to choose a safety seat or seat belt in four stages according to the height, weight and age of the body at different stages to protect the safety of child passengers.
Stage 1: Rear-facing child safety seats (infant safety seats; i.e. group 0 and group 0+)
Suitable for children: weight 0-13 kg Reference age: under 1 year old and 1 year old
How to use: Rear-facing child safety seat, as long as the child's weight is within the carrying weight of the seat, let the child use the rear-facing child safety seat as much as possible to better protect the child's cervical spine.
Stage 2: Forward-facing child safety seats (child safety seats; i.e. Group I)
Suitable for children: weight 9-18 kg Reference age: 1-4 years
How to use: The child safety seat is installed in a forward-facing direction, and the restraint belt in the seat needs to properly restrain the child. As children grow, they should be used whenever possible, as long as the child's weight does not exceed the weight of the seat or the height does not exceed the length that the restraint strap can restrict.
Stage 3: Booster seats (with or without backrest boosters; i.e. Group II + Group III)
Suitable for children: weight 15-36 kg, height under 145 cm Reference age: 4-11 years old
How to use: After using the booster pad, the child will be restrained by an adult safety belt. The seat belt should be placed on the child's shoulders and crotch.
Stage 4: Seat belts for adults
Suitable for children: weight 36 kg or more, height 145 cm and above Reference age: 11 years old and above How to use: When children use adult seat belts, they must do: 1. The restraint position of adult seat belts is on the shoulders and crotches of children; 2. Sit back against the seat; 3. Feet can land smoothly;
4. You can maintain this sitting position throughout the trip.
Always be safe when driving a vehicle
