Importance of a 5-Point Harness Carseat

Back



PLEASE READ THIS AFTER YOU WATCH THE VIDEO...Very Important Information... Statistics show that 90% of all children's car seats are incorrectly used or installed! To find a location to get your carseat installation inspected, go to: http://www.seatcheck.org/ OR http://www.safekids.org/certification and click on "Find a Technician" on the right. **********NEWS************ We have begun a non-profit foundation recently in honor and memory of Kyle. (please view our new video on YouTube.) You can find the webpage here - http://www.kyledavidmiller.org Our mission is to keep children in a 5pt safety harness up to 80lbs - we are accepting applications from families who cannot afford to purchase these car seats and are supplying those seats through the tax-free donations you can make through the site. We also have car seat safety information posted and will answer any question you have on car seat safety through the contact webpage. Please visit the site and help keep as many children safe as we can. ***NEW NEWS*** The Kyle David Miller Foundation is pleased to announce the launch of http://www.HipMonkey.com - You can now purchase Britax, Sunshine Kids, Safeguard and Recaro car seats and many other baby/children's products from Hip Monkey and the 100% of proceeds from every sale will be donated to the Kyle David Miller Foundation to go towards purchasing car seats for children in need!! Please visit HipMonkey.com and help support children in need through your purchase! Video Info: My son was killed in a car accident last year because a senile, 78 year old woman ran a red light and hit us causing us to flip into a ditch. Kyle's seatbelt came unlatched during the roll and he was ejected. His seatbelt was later examined by several experts who determined it was faulty and told me that seatbelts can and do fail, especially in roll over accidents. I had no idea that seatbelts could fail and think that this is something everyone should be made aware of. The government also needs to be more strict about making sure the people they issue licenses to are fit to drive... ************************** In Loving Memory of Kyle David Miller 3/13/02 - 5/29/05

At 40lbs, the harness must be removed.

The Sageguard Go only harnesses to 60lbs - the Boulevard harnesses to 65lbs and has higher top harness slot than the Go. When your son outgrows the Boulevard, consider a move to the Regent.

Stumbled on this while looking for a booster for our 4 year old. THANK YOU I wont look further.

My 3 year old is already in a booster, just a booster with a lap belt... oh my... Where I live now, 3 year olds don't sit in a booster cuz other people laugh at them.... saying you are a "baby" and not "a big boy"... too bad... The regular seat is going back... thanks for this video and G-d bless you for taking the time to put this video up, there should be only good for you and your family!

10/08 Featured on ABC News this week. Many booster seats have been recently been considered ineffective by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety. Be sure to check this list on ABCNews or on Kyle's website.

I'm so sorry for your loss. I was cheering when I was able to put my daughter in a booster seat. Now I'm crying after your video. I'm going to put our 5-Point harness in my car immediately. Thank you for sharing your loss and saving lives.

This video has impacted me (and my family) profoundly. Thanks very much for sharing your painful story w/the world. God's work certainly presents itself in 'strange' ways (good people dying for no good reason - SEEMINGLY)... but I know Kyle's death was not in vain. Your message has been received loud and clear - PROTECT YOUR CHILDREN! Kyle is so proud of what you've done since he's 'left' us. You'll meet him again... and it will be GLORIOUS! Keep the faith, Miller family! We thank you.

I've watched this video a dozen times. I've sent it to everyone I know, and they have sent it to everyone they know. You have probably saved millions of lives. Thank you so much, and I'm so sorry for you loss.
