Every trip—whether it's across town or across the reservation—make sure your child is:
✅ Properly secured in the correct car seat or booster seat
✅ Buckled up every time
✅ Riding in the back seat

A crash can happen in seconds, but using the right restraint can save a child's life.

Protect what matters most. Keep babies and young children safely buckled in the back seat on every ride.
