| Abstract | Child Passenger Safety (CPS) professionals have observed high levels of misuse of child restraint systems (CRSs) for many years. In the mid-1990s, a study conducted for the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) observed one or more forms of misuse in 79.5 percent of the seats inspected (Patterns of Misuse of Child Safety Seats, DOT HS 808 440, January 1996). NHTSA recently updated that research. |
