Abstract This paper presents theoretical considerations and investigations concerning child restraint systems in vehicles. Use this brochure in conjunction with the instructions that come with the CSRS to assure each child is properly restrained each time they travel in a school bus.įor more information on CSRSs and their use, product recalls, andĪ listing of Child Passenger Safety Technicians available to assist It provides the basic rules of proper CSRS usage and illustrates the most common mistakes made when installing a CSRS. This publication is designed to assist you in correctly securing pre-school age children in CSRS and properly securing the system to a school bus seat. Vehicle seat belts or harnessed restraints that are initially snug allow immediate restraint of the occupant, which maximizes the time of restraint and minimizes the level of loading required to stop the occupant. Child restraint systems include rear-facing-only car safety seats (CSSs), convertible and combination CSSs, integrated seats, travel vests, and belt-positioning booster seats.
Just as in other vehicles, these children need to be properly secured in Child Safety Restraint Systems (CSRS) when traveling in a school bus. evaluation of different types of child restraint systems for cars Mothers with young children approximately 6 months of age were selected from those who at various child care centres throughout Melbourne had answered a questionnaire concerning the use of child restraint systems in cars. Restraint systems can be generally categorized as vehicle restraints (air bags and seat belts) or add-on restraints specifically made for children (child restraint systems).
The number of pre-school age children transported in school buses to school and child care programs is at an all time high.
