Improperly worn safety belts

Incorrectly positioned safety belts can cause severe injuries.

Wearing safety belts improperly can cause serious injury or death. Safety belts can only work when they are correctly positioned on the body.

Improper seating positions reduce the effectiveness of safety belts and will even increase the risk of injury and death by moving the safety belt to critical areas of the body. Improper seating positions also increase the risk of serious injury and death when an airbag deploys and strikes an occupant who is not in the correct seating position.

A driver is responsible for the safety of all vehicle occupants and especially for children. Therefore:

  • Never permit anyone to assume an incorrect sitting position in the vehicle while traveling.

WARNING

Improperly worn safety belts increase the risk of serious personal injury and death whenever a vehicle is being used.

  • Always make sure that all vehicle occupants are correctly restrained and stay in a correct seating position whenever the vehicle is being used.
  • Always read and heed alt WARNINGS and other important information.
