Come out this Saturday, October 24th from 11am - 2pm to have a certified technician check your child’s car seat.

*Most Common Car Seat Mistakes*

According to safety data, misuse usually involves one or more of these frequent errors:

• Loose car seat base: The car seat moves more than an inch side-to-side at the belt path.

• Skipping the top tether: Failing to attach the top tether for a forward-facing seat, which allows the seat to pitch forward in a crash.

• Loose harness straps: The harness webbing at the child's shoulder can still be pinched between your fingers.

• Early transition: Moving children to booster seats or regular seat belts before they have outgrown the size and weight limits of their current seat.

Earlier this month the Ulster Police Department and Town of Ulster Highway Department worked collaboratively to install solar powered Radar Speed Signs on Morton Boulevard in the area of Chambers Elementary School.

“Our hope is these signs will help alert the motoring public on how fast they are traveling in a designated SCHOOL ZONE, as well as enhance the safety of all those traveling to and from school”.
