Child Car Safety

Did you know that 2 in 3 child car seats are not fitted correctly? Or that a child is twice as likely to be injured if using the wrong seat?

Whenever children are in a car, they must be safely buckled up in child car seats that are correct for each child’s age and size. 

Hunter's Hill Council runs four free child car seat checking clinics for residents. Our next clinic will take place on Saturday 8 March 2025 from 9am to 1pm at Lane Cove Council Chambers car park at 48 Longueville Rd, Lane Cove. To book, you can contact the road safety officer by emailing roadsafety@huntershill.nsw.gov.au, or you can call 9911 3576.

If you wish to have your child car seat checked at other times, please do so with an Authorised Fitter.
