Kevin confirms that RoSPA does not recommend adding any additional products onto child car seats, unless they have been approved by the child car seat manufacturer, as they have not been independently tested. We have had confirmation from the United Nations Economic Commission for Europe that it is not illegal. It can also be used with highchair and stroller harnesses to prevent children standing up and getting out. It's worth noting that it cannot be made 100% inescapable, as it needs to be easily released by an adult in an emergency situation.I fasten the seat buckle with slack in the straps, put the cover over the buckle and fasten back to front, then tighten the seat belt straps. The Houdini Strap was made for young adventurers who are a little more than eager to get out of their car seat and get going, even when you're on the move.

Both companies say impact shields are safer in a frontal crash as the forces of a collision are distributed and absorbed into the shield, as opposed to a 5-point harness, which may dig into a child’s neck and shoulder area. The Houdini Stop is legally allowed to be purchased as an accessory, and used on a wide range of harnesses. Make sure you take off any puffy jackets, snowsuits or thick tops, as these types of clothing can cause gaps between the harness and your little one, making it easier to wriggle out of. To be serious, I don’t really have a solution for you but must stress that, difficult as it is at the time, you must try to ignore the fact that your ‘little darling’ has escaped again and not be distracted until you have pulled up safely.We know how terrifying every second of the trip with children like this can be – wondering if your child has gotten unbuckled and whether you can find a safe place to pull over quickly enough before this child starts trying to open the doors, climbs into the front seat, starts unbuckling others in the car, or god forbid someone hits you.

In addition, a parent who is constantly worried about a child escaping is a very distracted driver, which endangers everyone in the car as well as others on the road. This revolutionary car seat chest clip has been proven not to interfere with the existing car seat harnessing in anyway and does not ride up and cause a choking hazard in a simulated accident situation. I would go with the behaviour management thing too- a lot of hard work to start with (having to leave extra time for journeys, stop the car, pull over etc) but so much more effective in the longer term. Designed to give you some extra peace of mind while driving, this device clips in between the two straps of your child's car seat harness to make it more difficult for them to get their arms out.I have an autistic 7 year old who is a master escape artist, he almost caused me to crash my car 2 years ago getting out of his car seat and in the front on my steering wheel. Safety: The product has been crash-tested to meet AS/NZS standard 8005:2013 in both forward and rear-facing car seat situations.
