Over the past six years, I’ve had the pleasure of writing a lot about my two biggest interests: best practices in car seat safety and best practices in driving techniques, vehicle selection, and road design. I’ve received thousands of emails from parents interested in choosing the safest car seats, cars, minivans, SUVs, or pickup trucks for their families, and it has been an honor to help wherever I can and advocate for best practices in car seats, car safety, and overall road safety in the United States, Canada, and around the world.
However, with as big as The Car Crash Detective has grown (more thanĀ 492 articles as of January 2020, not including pages like the 3 across guide or recommended car seat list), it can be difficult to find specific content.
Here is every post organized by date, from the newest to the oldest. Enjoy!
