Baby Stroller Safety to Avoid Stroller Incident

You must heard about the 6 month old baby who miraculously survived being hit by a train after his stroller rolled off the platform in Melbourne, Australia on October 15, 2009.

The baby’s mother was temporarily distracted by an oncoming train as she waited on an elevated train platform. Her baby son’s stroller rolled off the platform and onto the tracks just as the train ran over it. This video shows the mother desperately reaching for her baby and nearly being hit by the train herself. She then screams hysterically as onlookers walk away in shock.

It’s make us shock and aware about baby stroller safety. Baby Stroller Safety is very, very, very important! Don’t make it easy! To avoid the incident, I only can suggest to make sure to check the brakes holding when applied and working properly.

And don’t leave your child unattended in a stroller. This doesn’t mean you have to be no more than a foot away at all times. Just be sure that either you or another responsible adult (not child) is within easy reach at all times.
