Albany County Hosts Annual Child Safety
Seat Checkup Event April 5th
Guilderland: Car crashes are the number one killer of children between one and 13 years old. That’s according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. And that’s why it’s so important that car seats and booster seats are used and installed properly. The Albany County Traffic Safety Program has been hosting free child safety seat check events for over 20 years to help parents and caregivers protect their kids in motor vehicles.
Every year, we see hundreds of seats improperly installed, and by hosting these events, we ensure that children are properly protected. We replace expired, damaged, or recalled car seats or seats that are inappropriate for use by a child.
The Albany County Traffic Safety Program Child Safety Seat Checkup is free and will be held on Friday, April 5 from 11 a.m. – 2 p.m. in the Crossgates parking lot near the Tru & Homewood Suites by Hilton Hotel.
Follow Crossgates on Facebook & Instagram for updates on events, promotions & sales offered at our center and within our stores, restaurants & entertainment venues.
