Special Considerations For Pick Up Trucks and Safety Belts From The Connecticut Highway Patrol

Special Considerations for Pick Up Trucks

• Pickup trucks with passenger airbags and no "shut-off" switch and no back seat cannot safely transport babies under 1 YOA. Babies this age must ride rear-facing and always in the back seat; the front may only be used if there is no danger from an airbag.
• If there is an airbag "shut-off" switch, read the pickup truck owner's book for instructions.
• Extended cab pickups with side-facing jump seats are NOT appropriate for children, or adults for that matter, to ride. Safety belts do not provide good protection in these seats. Safety seats CANNOT be installed.
• Extended cab pickups with rear bench seats may be appropriate. Make sure almost the entire base of the safety seat fits on the vehicle seat. Make sure a rear-facing seat will fit when reclined half-way back.
• Even when a forward-facing safety seat is installed tightly with the safety belt, a child's head could hit the front seat in a crash. A tether strap is recommended. Check the safety seat instructions and the vehicle owner's book.
• Never allow anyone to ride in the bed of a pickup. Riding this way can cause serious injury or death even if there is a shell or topper attached. It is also dangerous with a topper because carbon monoxide fumes can kill a person.
