Schedule a Free Car Seat Check

with a Certified Technician

Child Passenger Safety Week is Sept. 18-24

A well-meaning forearm across the chest, held by a sibling, a “whim and a prayer,” family dinner tables are full of humorous— sometimes surprising—, tales of child restraint methods of yore. Thankfully, the science of child seat safety has evolved considerably over the years. Information and resources are also more readily available to help keep our most vulnerable passengers safe.

In fact, Westerville’s Certified Child Passenger Safety Technicians (CPST) from the Divisions of Fire and Police provide free child car seat inspections and installation assistance by appointment. During these sessions, CPSTs provide hands-on training on how to safely secure a child and the child restraint system.

Appointments with the Westerville Division of Police CPSTs are available 8 a.m.-12 p.m. on Mondays and the third Saturday of each month. Those needing another time may call the Westerville Division of Fire at (614) 901-6605.
