Travel Safely with Kenings Car Hire
Travelling with your family should be a joy, not a worry. Whether you’re heading out on a family holiday, visiting relatives, or simply exploring South Africa’s scenic routes, ensuring your child’s safety on the road is essential. At Kenings Car Van and Truck Hire, we take that responsibility seriously by offering child safety seats with your car rental, so you can travel confidently knowing your little ones are secure and comfortable.
Understanding Child Safety Seats
Child safety seats (often called car seats) are specially designed to protect infants and children in the event of a collision. They work by absorbing impact energy, keeping your child’s body restrained in the safest possible way, and reducing movement during sudden stops or crashes.
It’s not just good practice, it’s the law. South African regulations require children under the age of three to be secured in an approved child restraint system when travelling in a vehicle. But beyond compliance, it’s about peace of mind for every parent or guardian behind the wheel.
How Kenings Keeps Your Family Safe
When you hire a car from Kenings, you can request a child safety seat that suits your child’s age, height, and weight. Our fleet is equipped with a range of seats, including:
- Infant seats (for babies up to 13 kg)
- Toddler seats (for children 9–18 kg)
- Booster seats (for older children 15–36 kg)
Each seat is professionally cleaned, inspected, and safety-checked before every hire. Installation support is available, and our friendly team will ensure your seat is fitted correctly before you hit the road.
