   For those of us without drivers, Kid Car NY offers the next best thing — a car service that picks you up, with the correct child safety seat already installed.  The new business, which right now is restricted to Manhattan pick-ups and drop-offs, started in hospitals, providing a ride home to new parents with their infants (hence the infant seats). The company has a Kid Car Calculator on its website, where parents enter their children’s age and weight, and are given recommendations for the correct car seat to use.  This info is kept on file for members, so when you make a reservation, you know the correct seat will be in the car, ready for the ride.  Also, rides are billed to credit cards, and drivers cannot accept tips, so parents don’t have to fumble with wallets when they’re also trying to get kids out of cars.  To find out more, go to www.kidcarny.com.
