Why Rear-ward Faced?

RWF travelling is 5 times more safe than travelling FWF!

The developement of the neck, muscles and skeleton is not at same level on a small baby compared to an adult or older child.

How the child is protected

Modern cars have strong protection areas - if you are an adult. When the child is travelling in a rear-facing seat, the head will be supported by the seat, saving the child's weak neck from the crash forces.

Baby on board

Passagengers weight in the rear seat in a frontal impact.

Vehicle speed 50km/h - stop distance 550mm - retardation 30G

Passengers weight 40kg x 30G = 1200kg!

Passengers weight 75kg x 30G = 2250kg!

Weight on an umbrella 1kg x 30G = 30kg!!
