Hi guys I jst wanted to share information below,
“Any unrestrained object in the car can be a potential problem,” says Sean Kane, president of Safety Research & Strategies, Inc. “The two main factors are how fast the car decelerates or even how fast you’re braking and what the mass or shape of the object is….Objects in the vehicle do become projectiles, they do not decelerate with the vehicle.”
“In 2001, an estimated 13,000 crashes occurred in which an unrestrained object caused injury to an occupant,” says Kane. He recommends that parents use whatever means possible in the vehicle to secure unrestrained cargo and minimize carrying heavy unrestrained objects.
