NADA Joins Celebrities, Lawmakers at Capitol Hill Event on Child Safety

NADA expanded its reach and visibility on child safety issues by participating in the launch of the National Task Force on Child Safety at a special meeting on Capitol Hill last week.

David Hyatt, NADA’s vice president of public affairs, highlighted the role of auto dealers in child passenger safety by providing details of NADA’s nationalBoost for Safety Campaign. “More than one million child safety seats have been inspected at dealerships since the campaign kicked off four years ago,” said Hyatt. –Technicians found nine out of 10 seats improperly installed,” he added.

In addition to NADA, the child safety task force brings together lawmakers, media companies, celebrities, education leaders, safety organizations and medical professionals. The meeting was sponsored by the Creative Coalition and Safety 4 Kids.
