Monsoon Season & Child Safety: Stay Safe on the Roads
Monsoon & Flash Flood Dangers
Monsoon season is here—or at least, it’s supposed to be. For some, this time of year is exciting and refreshing; for others, it brings unexpected headaches and costly damage. The truth is, your experience with monsoon season depends on how well you’re prepared and how much your property—or vehicle—gets impacted by storms and floods.
As a firefighter, I personally love monsoon season—except when I’m at the fire station. That’s because, in Arizona, many people struggle to drive safely in inclement weather. Every year, we see too many accidents and drivers stranded in flooded roads. While local governments work hard to minimize the damage, Mother Nature is unpredictable, and sometimes, well-intended efforts fall short.
At Home Hazard Prevention, we’re not a government agency, but we do everything we can to help our community stay safe. One of our key focuses is car seat safety. As a parent, keeping your child safe while riding in a vehicle is one of your most important responsibilities. Unfortunately, thousands of young children are injured or killed in car accidents every year. Properly installed car seats save lives, but with so many options on the market, choosing the right one can be overwhelming.
Choosing the Right Car Seat
The type of car seat your child needs depends on several factors:
- Age and Size: Different car seats are designed for infants, toddlers, and older children.
- Vehicle Type: Some car seats fit better in certain vehicles than others.
- Proper Installation: A seat is only effective if it is installed correctly and used on every trip.
For expert guidance, we recommend following the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) guidelines on car seat selection. If you need help choosing the best option for your child, we have compiled a list of recommended car seats along with pricing details.
