About this deal

It has been extremely successful for those passengers with challenging behaviour and / or learning difficulties. This product was approved to R44 regulations. However, when we carried out our own crash testing with it, we discovered that the product doesn't keep the shoulder part of the vehicle seatbelt low enough in a frontal collision. The horizontal belt also pulls up during a crash, meaning the seatbelt will pull across your child's delicate abdomen and potentially cause dangerous internal injuries. We believe that using the Smart Kid Belt would be no safer than transporting your child using just the vehicle seatbelts, something that is prohibited for children who are less than 1.35 metres. They’re designed to solve a range of different issues you might encounter while your child is sat in his or her car seat including: The vehicle safety-belt MUST be worn over the top of our harness unless they are exempt for medical reasons. Our car seat experts were concerned that installing a RiveMove may change the load distribution between the Isofix points, meaning they may no longer withstand a crash.

Infant car seats tend to have built-in sunshades, which are not only useful for keeping the sun out, but also provide a layer of protection from flying glass if you're in an accident. Although the technology exists, none of the regulations around the world utilise the sensors that could measure the dangerous loads arising from the chest clip and compression. The image below shows the Q3 crash dummy.These harnesses are the more robust of the only two harnesses approved for safe use in car seats in the UK. All other additions (other than these and the BeSafe) are deemed an unsafe addition to car seats. At CalmFamily we consider safety as paramount because keeping our precious babies safe is one of 3 key roles we have as parents (ask us about the other two sometime). With this product you can feel calm and reassured that your little escape artist is secure and in their safety seat where you left them, leaving you free to drive and sing along to your favourite tunes. Sadly they do not quieten your child. We can’t have it all. Description We haven’t yet seen any issues with car seat accessories causing problems at claim stage and therefore cannot envisage a scenario where a claim would not be covered.' However, we'd strongly advise you to be careful what you go for. Car seats are crash-tested in the way they are designed to be used, and adding accessories such as chest clips or seat covers that aren't approved by the manufacturer could compromise the seat's safety and/or void the warranty. A recent study in Australia identified that children are 12 times more distracting than mobiles whilst driving.In the UK alone there are approximately 1,700 children (source ONS) aged 0-4 years old who are injured or killed whilst travelling in cars.This could be as many as one every hour based on a five-hour window each day for children travelling in cars to and from nursery or the shops. Dangerous localised loads generated in the event of a collision (E.g. Viano & King, Yong Han, Jun Ouyang, Koji Mizuno, Anguo Cang)

These mirrors are popular, but many safety experts feel they are a distraction, and we wouldn't recommend using them. If the car seat cover does not have this, then technically it will mean the car seat is not meeting all the legal requirements.

The issue with child car seats is that, even with a correctly ­fitted harness, a toddler can easily push their arms under the harness straps. Toddlers wriggling their shoulders out from their car seat harness is a common problem and renders the car seat ineffective in the event of an accident. It’s unlikely we would reject a claim based on car-seat accessories alone. That said, we would encourage parents to ensure their car seats are fitted properly to reduce the risk of injury.'
