School Bus Restraints for Small Children in Canada

Conclusions and summary

8. CONCLUSIONS AND SUMMARY

The 6-year old dummy was well protected by compartmentalization. The 3-year and 18-month old dummies would benefit from a properly installed child restraint. 

The analysis of the data in this study suggests that children corresponding to Stages 1 and 2 would benefit from the use of properly installed children's restraint systems while travelling in a school bus.
