In search of car seats: crash testing

Written by jlz on February 20, 2006 – 10:14 pm -

Another tidbit that we found out during our trip to Babies R Us: European car seats such as Britax are crash tested at 75 MPH, whereas the American counterparts such as Graco are tested at 45 MPH.

It’s no wonder that the European ones are so much more expensive!!!

    Everything designed by European is safety as highest priority.

    If you crash had a head-on collision @ 75mph with an infant, your car seat might survive, but the baby will not!
