Welcome to MAPTME
Child Passenger Safety Inspections
Safe Kids Maine will conduct the following child passenger safety outreach activities in November. Your help to volunteer at these events is needed and appreciated!! All events are held inside unless otherwise noted. In the event of inclement weather, please contact the event coordinator to inquire as to whether the event has been cancelled or not. The monthly car seat inspection stations follow the public school snow day policy so if school is cancelled in the city/town where the inspection station is located, the inspection station will be cancelled as well. All cancellations will be immediately posted on www.maineseatcheck.org and submitted to the local media news stations to be added to the cancellation list.
