 Holden is launching a free mobile child restraint inspection service in Sydney to raise awareness about the proper use of infant capsules and child seats.
The new mobile service is available to kindergartens, child care centres and crèches in the Sydney metropolitan area, free of charge. An RTA Authorised Fitter will check restraints in all makes and models of vehicles. The fitter will be on hand to provide assessments and advice to parents, to rectify mistakes and advise parents on appropriate usage. Parents will also be provided with written summaries and recommendations.
This is the first free mobile inspection service of its kind in Sydney, and has been initiated based on the demand for Holden’s equivalent service in Melbourne. To date, the service has inspected 1,092 restraints in Melbourne, since March 2003, with more than 70 per cent of child restraints found to be fitted incorrectly.
Those interested in organising an inspection event at their Sydney-based childcare centre or school, should contact Belinda Simmons, toll-free, on 1800 223 076, during business hours.
