Most Car Seats Fail "Disastrously" In Crash Tests - Co

Consumer Reports has tested several models of children’s car seats and most “failed disastrously” in side-impact tests at 38 mph, and front-impact tests of 35 mph. “The car seats twisted violently or flew off their bases, in one case hurling a test dummy 30 feet across the lab.” http://consumerist.com/2007/01/05/most-car-seats-fail-disastrously-in-crash-tests/

As a parent with a 12 month old, this worries me greatly. by burnman Jun 25

I accept this award on behalf of all the fine teachers I've known over the years who've struggled to make their transactions with children honorable ones, men and women who are never complacent, always questioning, always wrestling to define and redefine endlessly what the word "education" should mean. A Teacher of the Year is not the best teacher around, those people are too quiet to be easily uncovered, but he is a standard-bearer, symbolic of these private people who spend their lives gladly in the service of children. http://www.naturalchild.org/guest/john_gatto.html
