PGPD to Hold Car Seat Check in College Park

Attention parents and guardians:  at a recent child car seat check in Prince George’s County, technicians found that 100% of the car seats inspected were improperly installed.  The Prince George’s County Police Department is committed to ensuring all children travel safely on our roads.  That’s why the PGPD and the Prince George’s Community Federal Credit Union will hold another car seat check this Wednesday. The event is free and open to the public. 

Certified car seat technicians will ensure that car seats and boosters are properly installed.  All cars seats must be installed upon arrival.  Appointments are not necessary.
