EMPHASIS: Troop G To Conduct Child Safety Seat Check

Captain Mark G. Inman, commanding officer of Troop G, announces Troop G will host a child safety seat inspection at Troop G Headquarters, 1226 West Business Highway 60/63 Willow Springs, Missouri. The event will be held from 9 a.m. to noon on August 25, 2017. Troopers will inspect child car seats for proper installation and will be able to provide instruction if needed. Interested persons should bring their car seat owner's manual and the owner's manual for their vehicle.

"Securing a child in a properly installed car seat when traveling in a vehicle is key to their safety,” said Captain Inman. "The Highway Patrol maintains a zero tolerance policy on child restraint violations, so make sure your children are restrained in the appropriate child restraint for their age, height, and weight."

The only 100 percent survivable traffic crash is the one that never happens. Make sure everyone in the vehicle is properly restrained in a seat belt or child restraint. Every day as we travel on Missouri’s roadways, we trust that every driver on the road is going to obey the speed limit, pay attention, and drive sober. “Don’t Violate The Trust.”
