Children 8 to 12 years old should be in back seat | Ohio car accident lawyer

According to a recent article by the Ohio Kids are Riding Safe website, it is imperative that children between the ages of 8 and 12 ride in the backseat of a vehicle.

While they are too big for a booster seat, the front seat still leaves little protection in the event of an Ohio car accident. Our Toledo, Ohio car accident lawyers encourage parents to always have their kids ride in the back, even if they enjoy riding in the front.

The results of front seat or unrestrained car accidents are devastating. Read these statistics from the article:

Tweens, children eight to twelve years old, are dying in car crashes at a rate of more than one a day. Nearly half of the tweens killed in car crashes in this country each year were riding unrestrained and one third were riding in a front seat. The older children get, the less likely they are to use safety belts or to sit in the back seat.

If you or someone you know has been injured in an accident, or has a child who has been injured in a car accident, you need information. Order your FREE copy of The Ohio Accident Book, or our new book on child accidents, Little Kids, Big Accidents: The Ultimate Guide to Child Accident Cases in Ohio.
