CHILD RESTRAINT APPROVAL

Hey Adam,

My wife is pregnant and we’re getting closer to the birth of our baby, but my 4WD doesn’t seem to have proper child restraints in the rear. The 4WD is not my daily drive, but we do use it for longer trips on the weekend. Who do we need to see about getting points fitted?

Thanks mate,

Ryan, NSW

Hi Ryan,

Being seat belt related, this is something that usually needs to be done by someone who is approved to do so and may also need to be signed off.

I would contact your Road Traffic Authority and see if they can give you someone who is approved to do so. Here in Victoria, I’m pretty sure Vic Roads have a list of places that do this, so definitely check with your NSW road traffic authority first.

Hope that helps and congratulations!

GO NUTS!

Adam
