For every infant who cooks forgotten in the back seat, a dozen survive crashes that they probably would not have otherwise and escape serious injury.

Rejecting car seats in the back because a few children are forgotten is like refusing to wear a seatbelt because you’re planning to be thrown clear in case the car goes down a cliff.

No. You are philosophically wrong on ALL counts, and philosophies such as yours CREATE these problems, they don't solve them. Cripes, the front-seat airbags that started this whole mess came about because they were mandated by folks with mindsets much like yours -- the nanny state, of legislators and others forcing their ideas of "safety" on everyone else. Your statistics with regard to numbers of kids "saved" by not being smashed by front-seat airbags versus the ones who broil forgotten in the backseat may be mathematically correct, but statistics are among freedom's biggest enemies when they presume to force specific behaviors that are none of your, my, nor the States's business. This is a matter of FREEDOM and making your own decisions. Parents should decide for themselves how they want to provide "safety" for thier kids, not you, not me, not a bunch of lawmakers. Parents.
