For example, it might use a standard seat belt, with no additional clips, straps, anchors, etc. In an emergency - when the car catches fire, say, or is hanging upside down over the abyss - it will be fastest to extricate the child and car seat together by unclipping the seat and removing them as a unit. -- Matt Fichtenbaum "Our job is to rescue fires, not put out your cat."
