Sellers of triangular belts for children began to be fined and subject to administrative charges. A popular baby seat alternative is unsafe and can cause serious injury—and even death.
Triangles are in demand on marketplaces – they are cheaper than special seats and more convenient to use. Sellers assure that the pads protect the baby no worse than the chairs. In fact, the “guide strap” violates safety regulations, and many stores provide illegal certificates, Roskoshestvo told Mash. The department has already succeeded in blocking sellers on marketplaces, and the data of some scoundrel businessmen was transferred to the Ministry of Internal Affairs. Some of them received administrative charges and a fine of up to 20k.
Using a triangle is now prohibited, but many drivers do not know about this, believe sellers and buy it under a different name. For example: seat belt adapter, child restraint, frameless child car seat or booster seat.
