May Tips of the Month: Safety Belt Use
Safety belts need to be used even in
vehicles with air bags. Air bags are designed to be used in
conjunction with seat belts.
Make sure the seat
belt fits correctly. It should fit low across the hips
without riding up onto your stomach. The shoulder part of the
belt should be across the collarbone and chest, not against the
neck or face.
Do not place
the shoulder belt behind your back. In this position the belt is
not able to hold you in place.
