LATCH evaluations are something that El Reno parents should take into account when purchasing a vehicle that will be used with a child safety seat. Lower Anchors and Tethers for Children, or LATCH, gives driving adults additional options for securing their children’s safety seats instead of simply using the basic seat belt.

LATCH evaluations tell parents how easy and efficient a particular vehicle’s LATCH system is to take advantage of. Motorists who often transport small children would be wise to choose a vehicle with a high LATCH evaluation score. These evaluations take a few different LATCH system attributes into account.

Accessibility is one of these factors, while angle, location, anchor hardware and ease of use are also weighted highly during LATCH evaluations. At Diffee Lincoln, we suggest that local motorists who are concerned about effectively securing child safety seats choose to purchase vehicles that have gone through a LATCH evaluation and have received a good rating.
