There is no enforcement law in Malaysia yet. However, keeping your little one safe and comfy in transit is vital. Car safety checklist 1. Always buy the right car seat for your child’s weight. 2. Replace the car seat as soon as your child grows out of it. 3. Install the seat according to the manufacturer’s instructions. 4. Never use a car seat where an airbag is fitted. 5. Use the car seat for every car journey, however short. 6. Check that the car seat is firmly in position every time you use it. 7. Check that the harness is firm. You should be able to get only two fingers between the straps and your child’s chest. 8. If anyone else is driving your child around, make sure they know how to fit and use the car seat correctly. 9. Never leave your baby in the car unattended. Answers provided by Mothercare. Mothercare and ParenThots are currently running a safety contest at parenthots.com/contests/mothercare.
