Many individuals with high support needs may experience behaviors in the car that can pose risks to themselves and others. Taking proactive safety measures is essential to create a more secure, predictable environment that helps both individuals and caregivers navigate these situations with greater confidence and support. At The Sibling Foundation, we are committed to continuing to offer meaningful support to the disabled community, their families, and vulnerable populations by providing education, resources, and guidance that promote safety, understanding, and compassionate care in everyday life.

Here are some suggestions:

(01) Car Barriers: If driver distraction is a concern → use barriers

(02) Seat Belt Buckle Lock/ Guard: If unbuckling is a concern → try buckle locks / guards

(03) Adjustable Vest for Vehicles: If movement/positioning is a concern → consider a safety vest

(04) Car Safety Decal: If emergency responders need quick context → use a safety decal
