Can you secure an infant car seat without a base?
Can you secure an infant car seat without a base? But: what if you're traveling with your baby and don't have your own car, and thus the base, on hand? Luckily, most infant car seats can be secured in the car without the base – it's just a little more complex.
Should car seat go behind driver or passenger?
If you can, put the car seat in the center seat. If not, it is fine behind either the driver or passenger side. The important thing is that it is in the back, away from the airbags. Even in a minor crash, airbags can seriously injure your little one.
