Where do you put a rear facing baby carrier in your car (left side - right side - middle??

Answers:
Ideally you'd want the carseat in the middle to protect him or her best in a side impact accident.

Other Answers:
Middle if you can. My car is too little, so I put it behind me, cause I know I can see a car coming at that side better. Best wishes

Its all up to you. but its more safer in the back of course

You can put it anywhere as long as it's in the back seat!

I agree with coloryst if at all possible put it in the middle that way there is more cushion if you got hit in either side.......something as a paranoid Mom I think about :)

I put my car seat in the backseat passenger side. That way whoever is driving can see the baby if they look over their shoulder. Although I believe they say it is safest to put the baby in the center as long as there is a seat belt and not on a crack.

The safest place is the middle, in case of a side impact accident. I read this in my 5 month old sons car seat info packet. Unfortunatly I have to put him on the left because his older brother is on the right. I don't trust his older brother to sit next to him because he plays too rough with him still. Good Luck!!!

middle is the safest but if you cant because you have 2 kids then i would put the baby on the opposite side of you so you can see the baby,,i always used a car infant mirror that stics on the back window so yu can see the bab in your rearvies mirrior

it's supposed to go in the middle.

Check on line at your car maker's site. They should tell you where in the backseat a child seat was tested in crash tests.

Depends on your car...it's best to put the baby in the middle, but some cars are not suitable for that so they need to go on the side. The side behind the driver is safest as it is most likely not to be hit in an accident.

Make sure to have it checked out by a car seat inspector...it's amazing how many little details make your baby's life in jeapordy.

Always middle but if can not put it on the right side so u can always see the baby

any side that i know of.. but in some states it might be different i dont know.. i but my newborn behind the drivers seat cause i have my 3 yr old behind the passengers seat so i can see what he is doing

where u want it

Its up to you. We put ours in the middle just in case someone t-bones us on either side, she is more protected in the center.
