Why isn't there any enforcement on non-use of child seats in Japan?
Many times I see small children being let free to bop around in cars while the car is in motion.
Don't these parents have any common sense? It makes me cringe when I see it. I have asked a Japanese friend why they don't use car seats. The excuse is that it's too much work to buckle them in or the seats are too expensive. It couldn't be more expensive than their gucci wallets . I don't understand the mentality.
I know there is a campaign to recommend usage but there is no enforcement. I read that Japanese treasure their children and I am sure there are some that do. But, I see a bunch of negligent ones. I wish some of these people had enough of sense to look at the preventative measures of buckling their children for safety and preservation to enjoy them and love them.
