If in a car accident, your auto insurance will cover the replacement cost. Ensure you include it in the claim.


Speaking of car seats, Steven Levitt did this talk eleven years ago.

The gist of it is that car seats do not help nearly as much as we hope. I got the impression that there ought to be a car with a built-in, non-removable car seat would work better. I'd imagine this would be an instant hit in the SUV market. However, no automaker seems to take up on the challenge. Is there a legislative obstacle that prevents automakers from doing this?


Unless you’re leasing, I don’t think parents would be thrilled to have a seat unusable after a few years. And even if you are, sometimes you’re transporting people or large items other than your child.

People want safety, but they also don’t expect to actually be in a serious accident.
