Proper fitting of child safety seats takes some training and Marble Falls Area Emergency Medical Service (MFAEMS) will be offering training for anyone who wants to join the inspection team. The Safety Seat Technician Course will be held at the main station Friday and Saturday, Dec. 2-3, and also on the day of the inspection event, Dec. 10.

Another child car seat inspection event of has been scheduled for Saturday, Dec. 10, by the Marble Falls Area Emergency Medical Service (MFAEMS).

The MFAEMS is scheduling appointments between 1-3:30 p.m. for car seat inspection and fitting. The inspections will take place at the MFAEMS main station, 609 Industrial Boulevard, in Marble Falls.

The number to call is 830-693-7277. The service is free and the MFAEMS can help provide a seat for families that cannot afford one.

The child to be fitted must be present at the appointment. Every child younger than age eight and shorter than four-feet-nine-inches tall travel in a federally approved child car seat. Fines from $25 for the first offense up to $250 for subsequent offenses are little compared to the heartache of injury or death of a child.
