Wrongful Death
BABY DIES IN CAR IN UNSECURED INFANT CARRIER
Twenty-year-old Heidi Alexis was driving in Miramar on Sunday and struck a concrete pole. She suffered non-life-threatening injuries and should be fine. However, her nine month old daughter will not, as she died in the crash.The baby was in an infant car carrier, but the car carrier was not restrained and offered little protection.
Florida law requires children to be restrained at all times while in a car. Often local law enforcement agencies will provide inspections of the secured infant carrier to insure it is done correctly. Additionally, a person can contact their local law enforcement, who will inspect to insure the carrier is properly secured. It only takes a short period of time and will help keep your children secure.
