The videos below convey the power of crash forces and present the safety benefits of a rear-facing seat compared to a forward-facing seat with easy to understand language and imagery. The videos also dispel barriers and myths common among parents (e.g., leg crowding), thereby motivating parents to continue rear-facing car seat use.
