FORD 2001 Focus - Manual (Page 96)

Seating and safety restraints

Reasons given... Consider...
Belts wrinkle my clothes" Possibly, but a serious crash can do
much more than wrinkle your
clothes, particularly if you are
unbelted.
The people I'm with don't wear
belts"
Set the example, teen deaths occur
4 times more often in vehicles with
TWO or MORE people. Children
and younger brothers/sisters
imitate behavior they see.
I have an air bag" Air bags offer greater protection
when used with safety belts.
Frontal airbags are not designed to
inflate in rear and side crashes or
rollovers.
I'd rather be thrown clear" Not a good idea, people who are
ejected are 40 times more
likely to DIE. Safety belts help
prevent ejection. WE CAN'T PICK
OUR CRASH".
