Collisions Happen. We’re Here to Help.
No one plans for an accident — and most parents don’t want to think about them. But traveling with kids means preparing for real life, not worst-case scenarios. That’s why safety isn’t about fear. It’s about thoughtful design, clear standards, and confidence in the gear you use every day.
At WAYB, we believe parents deserve reassurance, not anxiety. Here’s what to know about car seat safety, what to do if you’re ever involved in a collision, and why Pico is built to support families through everyday travel and the unexpected moments along the way.
First, Take a Breath
If you’ve been in a collision — even a minor one — the most important thing is that everyone is okay. Many collisions are low-speed and result in no injuries, but it’s still smart to pause and evaluate next steps carefully.
Safety doesn’t start with panic. It starts with information.
What to Do After a Collision
After any collision, it’s important to assess your car seat before using it again. While guidelines can vary, here are general best practices parents can follow:
- Do not reuse a car seat if it shows visible damage
- Check the manufacturer’s guidance for post-collision use
- Contact customer support if you’re unsure about next steps
- Replace the seat if recommended, even after a minor crash
When in doubt, it’s always okay to ask questions. Car seat safety decisions shouldn’t feel overwhelming or unclear.
Why Pico Is Designed With Safety in Mind
Pico was designed intentionally — not just to meet standards, but to support real families navigating real travel.
Here’s what makes Pico different:
A Strong, Lightweight Aluminum Frame
Pico uses an aerospace-grade aluminum frame that provides strength without unnecessary bulk. This structure is designed to manage energy effectively while remaining portable for travel.
Thoughtful, Purpose-Built Design
Pico isn’t a traditional car seat adapted for travel — it’s designed specifically for it. That means fewer compromises between portability and protection.
Clear Safety Standards
Pico meets all applicable U.S. safety standards and is FAA approved for airplane use, giving families consistent safety across cars, planes, and rideshares.
Designed for Proper Installation
A car seat can only protect a child if it’s installed correctly. Pico’s design prioritizes intuitive installation to help reduce misuse — especially in unfamiliar cars or travel situations.
Safety Without Fear
We don’t believe safety education should scare parents. Accidents aren’t something to obsess over — they’re simply a part of life on the road. The goal isn’t to imagine the worst.
The goal is to feel confident that, if something unexpected happens, your gear was designed thoughtfully and responsibly.
