Lubbock Parents: Get Your Car Seat Checked Free This Wednesday - KFYO

The event falls during Child Passenger Safety Week, and safety partners with TxDOT will be on hand to check installations for local families. Parents need to bring their child along with the car seat currently in use. Skipping either one defeats the purpose, since technicians need to see the actual setup in real conditions.

Car seat misuse is common even among parents who think they've got it figured out. A quick professional check can catch loose straps, wrong angles, or seats that outgrew a kid months ago without anyone noticing. For families near that County Road 2500 address, this is a rare shot at a free, hands-on inspection instead of guessing from a manual or a YouTube video.

The impact here is straightforward. Parents across Lubbock get two hours on a Wednesday afternoon to make sure their kid is actually protected on 19th Street, the Loop, or wherever the daily commute runs. No appointment fee, no dealership upsell, just trained eyes on your setup.
