Newton Police Department (Newton, Massachusetts)

I understand and agree that the sole purpose of this program is to help reduce the incidence of improper installation of child restraints, that if applicable, the distribution of a new car seat provided by the Newton Police Department, is being provided at no cost, that this program cannot fully evaluate the quality, safety, or condition of my child restraint, any restraint provided, or any component of my vehicle including the seats and seatbelts, and that this program cannot fully guarantee my child’s safety in a motor vehicle collision. However, I understand that a properly used child restraint can significantly reduce the chance of death or injury and it is important to read both the vehicle and child restraint manufacturer’s instructions. For these reasons, I hereby release the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, the Executive Office of Public Safety and Security’s Highway Safety Division (EOPSS/HSD), the Massachusetts Department of State Police, all state and local emergency personnel including police departments, fire departments, ambulance services, their divisions and subsidiaries and any programs participants, sponsors, and traffic safety advocates from any present or future liability for injuries or damages that may result from a motor vehicle collision or otherwise.
