Not sure if this has been done or not but it's always good to be more informed.

Great quiz! I got a 100%! Good reminder for those of us with bigger kids that don't research seats as much.

Crap. *sigh*

I got the one wrong about the at or below the shoulders for rear facing. In my defense, It's been a while since I had a child rear-facing? *grumble*

Also 100%, although I have to admit I guessed on one of the booster questions, since I've not had much occasion to actually look at them in use, and am years away from using one myself. :bowdown: to all the mamas here who've helped to educate me on carseat safety :)

I missed the one about how much wiggle is allowed - I voted for 1/2" but the correct answer was 1". I like those seats in without any wiggle at all!

That's the one I missed as well. I also thought it was 1/2".

Thanks to all the great car seat info here over the last 6 yrs, I got a 95%! I missed the one about how much wiggle room is allowed- I guessed the 1/2" which is not correct apparently.
Thanks for posting this!

I got a 95%. The one I got wrong was how to ensure you get the tightest fit. I know if how to do it if I install it (knee in the seat/pull tight) but I clicked ask a policeman because the police in my area are so strict about doing an install that I assumed they meant "certified policeman" Oh well....not too shabby anyway LOL

oh puke.

i just scored a 65%. my friends think that i am a crazy carseat freak. perhaps they are misled.

the fire department told me that the infant handle should remain down. "why?" i asked. they told me that it allows the seat the rock properly in an accident. if the handle is up it would hit the back of the seat. damn fire department.

the other's i missed were toddler/booster questions (not their yet) maybe i'm excused?!?

also, did NOT know and glad i took the quiz, that the harness needs to be "at or above the shoulder when ff." could someone explain why this is different for rf and ff? really interested in science behind this.

who made this quiz? anyone can go on a make a quiz. just wondering if anyone knows the source (writer) or how to find that info out.
