Parents scrambling for child car seats

A new traffic ruling has led to child seats flying off the shelves as worried parents flock to shops in the hope of meeting next month's deadline to strap in their children.

Previously, child restraints were only compulsory for children under the age of eight.

Retailers said that since the December announcement, business has been brisk.
