TRAVELLING TIPS
SAFETY
Never hold a baby in arms when riding in a motor vehicle. In this position the baby could
be thrown against the dashboard, windscreen or other occupant and suffer serious injury
or death.
When riding in a motor vehicle never nurse a baby and use the same seat belt for both
of you. In this position the baby or child could be crushed.
Never breast feed a baby while car is in motion.
Children must be secured in appropriate restraints at all times when the car is in motion.
Children travelling unrestrained and standing up in the car are in danger of serious injury
or death. Traffic regulations in all states require children to be secured in child restraints
or adult seat belts where available.
Plan your trip with frequent comfort stops to reduce stress on babies, young children and
driver. Keep the car well ventilated to reduce heat stress. Car windows should be kept
open to maintain a good flow of fresh air.
Never leave babies or toddlers in a stationary car because of the risk of heat exhaustion.
Ensure babies and toddlers are adequately shaded from direct sunlight through side or
rear windows.
Check the car is ventilated by use of open windows or using the car's ventilation system
taking in external air. Recirculation setting is not suitable for providing ventilation.
Be on guard against carbon monoxide poisoning which can occur through only a slight
leak in the exhaust system while travelling in a closed car.
Securely stow all heavy objects, feeding bottles, etc. that could become missiles during
an accident and cause injury to any occupant.
CLOTHING/BATHING
Since it is often warmer in the car, dress the baby in light clothing.
Do not harness an infant wrapped in a blanket or swaddled. Any blanket or wrap must
only be placed over the harness and infant.
