Wonke umzali wenza konke okusemandleni ukuze asindise ingane yakhe ithonya elibi lezwe kanye nezingozi ezibalindele ekuphileni okunzima. Wonke umuntu uyazi ukuthi imoto ayiyona indlela elula futhi ekhululekile yokuhamba, kodwa futhi imbangela yezingozi eziningi. Njengoba ukwanda kwenani lezimoto, inani lezigameko emigwaqeni liyanda. Ukuze kuvinjelwe futhi kunciphise inani lokufa phakathi kwabantu abanjwe ezingozini, izinkampani eziningi zemoto zaqala ukukhiqiza imikhiqizo enomgomo wokuvikela umuntu ezingozini yemoto, ukuvimbela ukufa kwakhe nokuqinisekisa izinga eliphezulu lokuphepha.
Abantu abaningi bavame ukuhamba ngemoto nezingane zabo ezincane. Ngakho-ke, ngesikhathi sokugcina, izihlalo zezingane emotweni zaziwa. Kwakukhona izinguqulo eziningi ezihlukene zezinguquko zezingane, imibala yokuklama, izinto nezinto ezengeziwe kubo. Ngenani elinjalo lempahla enikeziwe, ngeke kube nomsebenzi onzima ukunquma ukuthi yiziphi izihlalo ezingane ezizozikhethela. Kuzo zonke izitolo ezigxile ekuthengiseni izihlalo zezimoto zezingane, kukhona ababonisi bokuthengisa abazokweluleka futhi basize ukhethe isihlalo emotweni emntwaneni wakho. Phakathi naleso sikhathi, ungajwayele ulwazi oludingekayo, oluzobaluleka lapho ukhetha isihlalo somntwana ngokuphepha kwayo emotweni.
Ngizibekela umsebenzi wokukhetha isihlalo somntwana, udinga ukuzijwayeza ngemikhiqizo eminingi efana nayo, ezoba nokuzikhethela, okuzokwenzela khona isihlalo esisodwa, njengendlela engcono kakhulu. Okokuqala, hamba ezitolo, ubuke izihlalo. Ungabonisana nabaxhumanisi, abathengisi. Ungesabi ukuthatha izitulo ezandleni zakho, uziphendulele futhi uzihlole, ngoba ukuphepha kwakho kwesikhashana kwengane yakho kuzoxhomeka ekuqapheni kwakho.
Elinye lamaphuzu abalulekile ekukhetheni isihlalo semoto sezingane kukhona ukutholakala kwezinto eziphakeme zezinga eliphezulu nezethembekile. Lezi zikhonkwane zidingekile ukuxhuma isihlalo esithintekayo nesihlalo semoto. Isihlalo somntwana sifakwa emotweni, sibeke esihlalweni futhi sivikelekile ngezingodo ezimbalwa. Lapho ukhetha isihlalo sobuhlalo, hlola ukuthi amabhande okugaya ahamba ngokukhululekile, kungakhathaliseki ukuthi asulelwe kahle yini, kungakhathaliseki ukuthi azimisele yini. Uma amabhande ngisho nangenkinga eqinile izoqhubeka, isihlalo sobuhlalo esinamabhande anjalo akufanele sithathwe. Izindwangu zokuzibopha ezisezingeni eliphansi ngeke zilondoloze isihlalo somntwana uma kwenzeka ukuqhuma ngokuzumayo noma ukushayisana ngokuwa.
Lapho ukhetha isihlalo, isisindo somntwana wakho sibalulekile. Kunamaqembu amahlanu wezihlalo zezingane. Iqembu lokuqala lenzelwe izingane ezinesisindo esingama-10 kg. Etihlalo ezinjalo, ingane ihlale ilala ngokuzungezile. Izihlalo zezingubo ziboshelwe esihlalweni sangemuva ngezintambo ezikhethekile. Iqembu lesibili lezihlalo lenzelwe izingane ezinesisindo esingaphezu kuka-13 kg. Banezingane zabo, ziboshwe ngamabhande abo. Iqembu lesithathu lingabantwana abanesisindo esingaphezu kwe-18 kg. Izihlalo ezinjalo zifakiwe kakade endleleni yokuhamba futhi ziboshwe amabhande abo esihlalweni semoto. Iqembu lesine lezimoto zezingane zenzelwe izingane, isisindo sayo esiseduze no-25 kg. Isihlalo sezingubo siqukethe izingxenye ezimbili: i-booster ne-backrest. Ingane ikhululekile ngokwanele ukuba ibe kulesi sihlalo. Futhi iqembu lesihlanu laklanyelwe izingane ezinesisindo esingadluli 36 kg. Lesi sihlalo sesivele singenasipredishithi. Ingane iboshiwe ngamabhande emoto. Futhi zikhona izihlalo zendawo yonke ezihlanganisa izici zezingubo zemikhakha emaqenjini ahlukene. Izihlalo ezinjalo zenzelwe isikhathi eside sokusebenzisa, njengoba zihlangabezana nezidingo zesisindo esibanzi nesigaba seminyaka yezingane. Kusukela ekubukeni kwezezimali, izihlalo zezimoto zizishibhile kakhulu. Kodwa ngaphambi kokuba ucabange ukuthi yiziphi izihlalo ozikhethayo, cabanga ukuthi noma yini enokukhethekile kanye nokusebenza kwesicelo ivame ukuba ngcono kunezinto ezivamile. Amabhande azo zonke izihlalo kufanele aqale ngenhla kwehlombe lomntwana, ukuvimbela ikhanda kufanele kube ngaphansi kwekhanda lomntwana kunalesi sikhathi.
Ukukhetha isitulo sezimoto ingane, kufanelekile ukubheka nokubeka uphawu. Okubhalwe phansi noma ilebuli ephethe i-ECE R44 / 03 noma i-ECE R44 / 04 ekumeni kokuhlolwa kokuhlolwa kanye nokuhlangabezana nemigomo ye-European Safety Standard kufanele iboniswe esihlalweni. Uma ukuvikelwa kwe-lateral kwesihlalo kuthuthukile kahle, khona-ke kungabhekwa njengokwethenjelwa, ngoba kudlule futhi kudlulisa ukuhlolwa okuningi.
Uma ingane yakho idinga ukunakekelwa okukhethekile, uma ilala kakhulu, zonke lezi zinto kufanele zicatshangelwe lapho ukhetha isihlalo somntwana ukuze umnike induduzo enkulu. Uma uhambo lwakho luzobe lude, khona-ke udinga ukunakekela ukuthi kungenzeka ukubeka isihlalo sokulala. Kubalulekile ukuhlola ukuthi ngabe isihlalo sinamakhonto yini ukuze kulungiswe izinga le-backrest yesitulo. Ukuze kube lula kakhulu kwengane, kufanele isebenze kahle.
Ngaphambi kokuthenga noma yisiphi isihlalo, kufanelekile ukuzama imoto yakho. Hlola ukuthi uthola ngaphakathi kumshini, kunesikhala esanele sokulungisa, hlola ukuqina kwawo. Njalo ngaphambi kokuthenga isihlalo odinga ukuyihlola ngokuhambisana nobukhulu bemoto. Uma ukhetha isihlalo semoto emgwaqeni, thatha ingane naye, masizwe ukuthi yisiphi isihlalo esifanele kuye, futhi lokho kungabangeli imizwa emihle nhlobo.
Akufanele ulondoloze ekuphepheni nasempilweni yengane yakho. Njengoba usithenge ngesinye isihlalo somoto, uzoqiniseka iminyaka eminingana ukuthi nengane yakho, uma kwenzeka ingozi yomgwaqo engalindelekile, akukho lutho olubi olwenzekayo. Izihlalo zezimoto zenziwe isilinganiso sezinga lentengo. Ukuphakama kwentengo yezimpahla, okuphakeme yizinga lekhwalithi yalo.
