Why do children have to travel rear-facing (RF) at least until the age of 4?

Did you know that rear-facing travel is up to 5 times safer than forward-facing? That’s why experts from @acontramarcha_oficial and organizations like the DGT recommend keeping children rear-facing at least until the age of 4—and for as long as possible! 🚗✨

Why is it so important?
✔️ The heads and necks of young children are very vulnerable. Until the age of 4, their muscles and bone structure are not ready to withstand the force of a frontal impact.
✔️ Rear-facing systems reduce the risk of serious or fatal injuries by up to 95% in the event of an accident.
✔️ Turning children forward-facing too soon exposes them to unnecessary and serious risks.

Expert tips from @acontramarcha_oficial:
🔹 Keep your child rear-facing for as long as possible, until they reach the seat’s weight or height limit—not just until the legal minimum age.
🔹 Always look for seats with the Plus Test certification, which guarantees maximum safety.
🔹 Install the seat according to the manufacturer’s instructions and prioritize the quality of the installation over the location in the car.
🔹 Don’t rely solely on regulations: the law sets minimums, but true safety means keeping your child rear-facing for as long as possible.

“Safety travels rear-facing. Only rear-facing. Always rear-facing.”
