ALBION – Attention all Orleans County parents and caregivers: there will be a child car seat check point event on Saturday from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. at the Public Safety Building parking lot, 13925 Route 31 in Albion.

According to data, vehicle crashes are the leading cause of death for children ranging from the ages of 1 to 13. Preventative measures, such as proper installation of car seats, boosters and seat belts can lower many deaths and injuries.

Informing and instructing parents and caregivers on child safety and proper installation of car seats is critical to saving young lives.

Our Certified Child Passenger Safety Technicians will inspect your car/booster seats to assure that your child is in the correct seat for their size and age. If you have questions about car seats, contact Certified Technician Kevin Colonna at 585-589-5527 or Kevin.Colonna@orleanscountyny.gov.
