Child-Restraint-System-in-Abbottabad

Rent a vehicle and do not give up on the safety of your children is not a smart move, child restraint systems manage to take them well protected.

The safety of our children is the most important thing and rental vehicles with child restraint systems are now a reality at your disposal.

Car rental companies are at the forefront of providing the best services, especially when traveling with the little ones in the house.

Needless to say, all children under the age of 12 are required to travel in the car using an approved child restraint system.

The current regulations do not distinguish between a cars owned or a used car, the main thing here is the safety of the little ones.

Zaman Travels is aware that the number of users traveling with children increases day by day, therefore, in addition to having the best rental vehicles in Abbottabad , we do not renounce safety and comfort in them.

That is why we have chairs for babies or children of different sizes.

What are SRIS?

CRS or child restraint systems are seats adapted for babies and children from birth to 12 years old. They are mandatory security elements in Spain as the best way to protect our little ones when we travel by car.

These devices reduce deaths in traffic accidents that may occur by 75%.

Most Common Injuries in Babies and Children

The use of an adequate CRS avoids the number of injuries by 90%. Let’s see what they are:

NECK INJURIES – Up to 2 years old and caused by the weight of the head and the fragility of the spine.

HEAD INJURIES – Between 2 and 4 years, produced because the vertebrae are not strong enough to withstand sudden decelerations.

ABDOMEN INJURIES – From 4 to 10 years, increased risk of internal bleeding or abdominal injuries, since the organs are not sufficiently fixed to their abdominal structure.

The CRS can be installed in two ways, either through a seat belt or through the ISOFIX system , included in many vehicles, so do not forget to ask when you go to rent a car.

Current Regulations of the CRS

Currently, two homologation regulations coexist, we are going to know each one of them:

Regulation ECE R44/04: This law approved by the European Union in the year 84, has been updated 4 times. This standard divides child safety systems, according to the weight of the child.

i-Size regulation: This law is from 2013, and establishes that the choice of seat must be made based on the size and weight of the child.

This regulation extends the time of use of the safety seat up to 15 months, for these devices to obtain approval they must undergo an additional side impact test.

The seats approved by this regulation can only be installed with the ISOFIX system, never with a seat belt.

These regulations are in force and the vast majority of child seats are approved by both, although it is expected that in the future the ECE R44/04 regulation will be eliminated, leaving only the i-Size regulation.

Tips for Using a Child Restraint System

  1. Demand an approved SRI, install it or ask that it be installed correctly in the vehicle
  2. Children under 15 months of age must be placed in the rear facing direction, the best position to reduce injuries in the event of a traffic accident.
  3. Backless booster seats are not authorized under the new rule, so don’t allow them.
  4. Remember that the child’s head should not protrude from the back of the CRS that is a good sign for you to change the size of the chair
  5. Check if the car you rent has ISOFIX systems and use them whenever possible.
  6. To travel with children in the car it is essential to take them well protected and the best way is, as we have seen, with the use of CRS, mandatory in our country.

For this reason, car rental companies must offer parents the child seat rental service to ensure the well-being and safety of the little ones.
