    logo_azdotVerde Valley AZ (September 21, 2016) – Did you know more than half of all car seats are installed incorrectly? Do you feel an urge to check the buckles, straps, bases and LATCH of your child’s seat?

    Go ahead. We can wait. But if you want a refresher in addition to reading the manual that came with your car seat, this video provides general car seat safety tips about installation, fit and when your child should move up to a new seat.

    The proper use of car seats is important because every day around the country more than 2,600 kids younger than 13 are involved a car crashes. While vehicle seats are designed for taller and larger adults, car seats keep kids safe. 

    20160921_carsafetytiptipsWith Governor Doug Ducey proclaiming this Child Passenger Safety Week, ADOT will display car seat-related safety messages on overhead freeways signs and share information on social media from agencies and organizations that are leaders in promoting car seat safety, such as the Arizona Department of Health Services’ “A Safe Ride Home” and the Governor’s Office of Highway Safety’s “Children Are Priceless Passengers.”

    City Council Weighs ATV Ban Ordinance Proposal
    By Tommy Acosta
    The Sedona City Council at its May 23, 2023 meeting took no action on a proposed ordinance that would ban all off-road vehicles from being driven on state-owned public roads or streets owned by the city. The ordinance, spearheaded by Sedona Mayor Scott Jablow on the premise that such vehicles pose a risk to the health, safety and welfare of the community, would impose heavy fines to anyone driving the ATVs or OHVs on city streets, including S.R. 179 and S.R. 89A. ATV rental companies have admitted that such vehicles are not intended or designed to be driven on paved roads, yet, in Arizona, they are allowed to do so under Arizona Revised Statute 28-1174 (4B). Opponents against the ordinance argued at the meeting that if adopted the ban would cripple the ATV rental industry in Sedona and cause much hardship to the owners and employees, as it would effectively, as written, destroy their livelihood.
