Monthly car seat inspections in St. Joseph will give parents the chance to make sure their children are safely restrained, just in case.

Troop H will be conducting car seat inspections at Troop H Headquarters, 3525 North Belt, St. Joseph, Missouri. The inspections will be conducted the first Tuesday of every month by appointment only from 7:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. Interested parties may contact Troop H Headquarters at (816)387-2345, to make their appointment and are reminded to bring their car seat owner’s manual and the owner’s manual for their vehicle.

“Making sure children are properly secured in their child restraint when traveling in vehicles is crucial for their safety”, Captain James E McDonald, commanding officer Troop H, said. “The Highway Patrol maintains a zero tolerance policy on child restraint violations, so make sure your children are properly restrained in the appropriate child restraint for their height and weight.”
