Customer Review: police told us this was a safety hazard
Summary: 1 Stars
I registered for this mirror to use in the car while my baby is in a rear facing car seat. It gave me peace of mind to glance back and see that baby is ok. But, in the first week after my son was born, we took our car seat to the police station to have it inspected/installed correctly. The police officer did a wonderful job securing our car seat, instructing us on the safest way to bundle baby in the winter, etc. But he was adamant that child view mirrors are a safety hazard. He said that in a severe impact, the mirror could detach and become a projectile object that could hit the baby. Even though the mirror is break resistant, it could still cause injury if it came flying at his head.
As for using a mirror to check on the baby while driving, the officer also mentioned that if you think the baby is in distress, the best thing to do is to pull over. If you are looking at the baby in the child view mirror, you are not looking at the road (his words, not mine). He then went on to advise against other things we had in our car, like the sun shade, and a couple of car seat toys (all can become projectile in an impact).
So, as a first time mom, I was probably a little paranoid. And I'm sure he was just doing his job to warn me about possible safety risks. But sure enough, he managed to put the fear of God in me, and I went home and stripped the car of everything that could potentially hurt the baby (my husband thought I was nuts). Now the only thing we have in the backseat with the car seat is a foam squishy toy that hangs off the back seat - safe during an impact.
Now we've been 6 months without a child safe mirror. There are times when I wish I had one. And once I even did pull over to make sure that my son was ok. But, I've gotten used to NOT having this mirror. So, even though the mirror was a comfort in the 4 days we got to use it, I'm glad we're not taking any chances.
