Hi,


In October we are going over to the US for a wedding, and I am planning on taking out maxi-cosi infant car seat with us for our baby who will be about 5 months by then. Does anyone know if there are any differences in the law when it comes to using a car seat over in the USA? I was hoping on just using the seat belt to strap the car seat in.


If anyone has taken a car with them to the US, I would love to know how it worked!


Thanks, Sophie

Hi Sophie,

I don't think you'll have a problem with the car seat. Am currently in the US and the car seat that my folks have straps in using the seat belt. They have one that can be strapped in facing the seat or facing the front. Be aware that if you are using a car that has side airbags, the car seat will need to be strapped in the middle and not lay flush on the seat. You can use towels to even it out better.

    • But without knowing the cause of the repeated leaks, it's impossible to comment really. Poor repairs? Something wrong further up the system? Lack of maintenance?  When one of the leaks in our road recurred shortly after it had been repaired, a TW guy said to me that the repairers must have jumped too hard on the asphalt (?) laid above the point of the repair when they were getting it to settle (?) and broken the repair. I wasn't sure if he was joking or not 🤣
    • But in many cases the leaks are happening in the same places again and again, and every inch of pipe outside the Horniman on the South Circular must have been replaced at least 3 times in the last 15 years! Of course the infrastructure in some areas is old, but locally there's been quite a bit of replacement. To little effect it would seem. 
    • Thank you, Pugwash. That's really useful information. Do you know who was responsible for the locks and keys, or which council department? Could you PM me if you don't want to put someone's personal details on here?  It may save me having to speak to Monica. Thanks.
    • Does anybody know why? Trees aren't cut down for no reason. There must have been something wrong with it (I hope that was the reason). A child was recently killed and another one injured when a tree fell in a park (not in this area). It isn't always obvious from the outside when a tree is diseased or whatever, and I imagine the council would give safety considerations priority when deciding what to do, if there was any doubt at all.
