Make sure your child is restrained in a car seat, booster or seat belt that’s right for their age and size.
Children shouldn’t wear bulky, thick or puffy coats while secured in car seats or booster seats.
Leave plenty of time to get where you’re going, and tune up your car and inflate tires properly before long trips.
For winter driving, keep a safe distance from snowplows, prepare an emergency kit for cold weather — including blanket, flares and jumper cables — and slow down on icy, rainy or snowy roads or other challenging conditions.
