Free Car Seat Check

Children younger than 8 must ride in a safety seat or booster seat. Fort Benning EMS conducts regular seat checks for military families the third Thursday of each month at the Main PX on Marne Road.

We will inspect your seat to ensure it is installed properly for the safety of your child.

For your convenience, seat checks can also be done any time at Building 9203, behind Martin Army Community Hospital.

Expectant parents can schedule an appointment for a car seat tutorial by calling 706-544-4000.
