Be Kind, Don't Recline

If you're like me, you occasionally sit in the car outside your house while the kid(s) finish their nap. Well, after reading this, I'm not going to recline my seat anymore when I do that.

Check out this article from Slate Magazine about the risks from a collision when the seat is tilted back:
Death Nap: The dangers of tilting back the front seat of your car -- don't do it!

An excerpt: "One of the main functions of kids' car seats (once they've reached the age of about 3) is to make sure that their seat belts hit them at the right height.'' Apparently, the same goes for us big people

Words to drive by.
