The North Charleston Police Department Traffic Unit does not currently have any certified Child Safety seat technicians however we are happy to assist anyone with questions toward obtaining the answer they need when it comes to child safety. If you have a question regarding the type of seat that you should be using or would simply like to have an officer check your child seat for correct installation, contact a technician at 843-745-1077 for details.

If you would prefer, join Trident Area Safe Kids Worldwide the first Tuesday of every month at Babies R us located in North Charleston between the hours of 4:00 pm to 6:00 pm. This is a free event for the public.

Although most inspections typically take less than 20 minutes, please allow for up to 45 minutes for a thorough inspection of a child safety seat. The increased time required for an individual inspection may be necessary to ensure that when the officer leaves, the parent or caregiver has been provided the knowledge and has the confidence that they are capable of installing the child seat properly on thier own.

Items you should bring to a Child Safety Seat check:
• Vehicle that seat will be installed in
• Child Safety Seat

The following items are also usefull to bring but not mandatory:
• Child Safety Seat Manual
• Vehicle manual
• Child who will be using seat
