  "title": "Rotating Car Seat Base Security While Driving",
  "question": "Does the rotating base lock securely so the seat stays in place while the car is being driven?",
  "answer": "The checked facts do not state that any of these bases locks securely for driving. The facts that bear on installation security are below. Maxi-Cosi Peri 180° Rotating Infant Car Seat: TensionFix is a red-to-green tension indicator for vehicle-belt installation. The base demonstration showed lower-anchor attachment, red-to-green tension windows, a height-adjustable load leg, five recline settings and a level line; the presenter cautioned viewers to follow the manual. Cybex Aton G Swivel: When correctly installed, either LATCH/UAS or an approved vehicle belt may be used, but not both simultaneously. Britax Galaxy360™ Slim Rotating Convertible Car Seat: The expert review praised QuickStand for exposing the belt path, but stressed that the lower-anchor strap must be routed around the front of the base and that the small retaining strap is not load-bearing.",
