How To Keep Stroller From Sliding In Trunk
I always continue DC'southward stroller in the backseat of our SUV. Sometimes when I make a abrupt turn, information technology shifts to the side. It got me wondering what would happen to the stroller if I were to be involved in an accident. Information technology seems like the stroller would go a projectile. Information technology's a big Citi Mini double stroller. I'm wondering if bungee cords would work. Has anyone tried this or anything else?

I don't know anyone that keeps their stroller in the dorsum seat. It would absolutely be dangerous if you lot got in an accident. Put information technology in the trunk.

OP hither....I meant to say body. Darn! Wish I could update the subject title!

We take a CR-5, and then our trunk is open to the dorsum seat. I worry near this, only don't have any solutions...

Nosotros have a "baggage baby-sit" or something similar that, that goes between the dorsum seat and the body for exactly this reason. It's not just your stroller--anything unsecured back at that place could be very unsafe in an accident. Groceries, packages, etc. The affair nosotros have came from the dealership (Volvo). I'chiliad sure y'all tin can become something similar for any suv.

Just had our car seat inspection last week and asked this question. We have a CRV too. Officer recommended a cargo net that we can constrict the strolled nether, like this i: http://world wide web.amazon.com/Honda-Genuine-Factory-08L96-T0A-100-Cargo/dp/B006ODTUEY
We accept the cargo encompass, only the part said it could easily pop out in a collision. The net is amend because it secures in four different places on the trunk floor, versus but two places adjacent to the trunk windows.
Thanks for reminding me that I even so need to order information technology!

Also, OP, where are y'all taking these "sharp turns," on a deserted land road? If not, you're going fashion to fast if your stroller shifts that much.

We have our BJ City Select Double and lay it flat on the floor of the body of either our Escape or our Prius. I accept the head rests on both cars upward (nosotros hang those mirrors so that I tin see my kids on the head rests). With the head rests up, it'due south much harder for the large stroller to fly into the front end role of the motel and it would have to exist a very, very hard affect to ship the stroller up and over or through the headrests. If that's the case, airbags are deploying and will also impact the stroller's ability to movement also far forwards. Also, when at that place isn't a lot in the car besides the stroller, the privacy shield on either gets pulled over the stroller.

No no!! I'm really a very conservative driver! I think the way the stroller is placed (on the side rather than flat) predisposes it to tipping when I brand whatever kind of plough. Our double stroller doesn't fit flat in the body of our car because of it'due south size and the size of our car.
7:51 Thank you for the link. I will definitely look into this!

Not certain your logic makes sense. A very hard impact is exactly when your child needs protection. If the stroller is moving hard enough to fly over the headrest, information technology can do a lot of impairment to the passengers. And I don't know what airbags take to practise with it--side curtain airbags will simply deploy in certain types of crashes (due east.thousand. not head on). For the $50 or whatever it costs, I'm much more comfortable buying a guard.

I apply bungee cords in the dorsum of my car
