The Knoxville Police Department hosts monthly Child Safety Seat Checkpoints at 917 E. Fifth Avenue in Knoxville, Tennessee.
In addition to hosting a checkpoint on the second Saturday of every month, a checkpoint will now also be offered on the fourth Tuesday of every month.
The Child Safety Seat Checkpoints are a completely free-of-charge service offered by the KPD for parents, grandparents or other guardians. During the Checkpoint, child car seats are inspected by a certified car seat technician to ensure proper use or installation. Additionally, car seat technicians provide valuable safety tips and recommendations for those utilizing child safety seats. The Checkpoints are led by KPD personnel who have completed the 32-hour Child Passenger Safety Technician Standardized Training.
The Checkpoints are hosted at 917 E. Fifth in Knoxville, Tennessee. Drive-ups are welcome for the Checkpoints hosted on Saturdays, but checks will be
conducted by appointment only on Tuesdays.
