Your Car's Safety Features
Door Locks
Keeping your doors locked reduces
the chance of being thrown out of
the car during a crash. It also helps
prevent occupants from accidentally
opening a door and falling out, and
outsiders from unexpectedly opening
your doors.
Pre-Drive Safety Checklist
To make sure you and your
passengers get the maximum
protection from your car's safety
features, check the following each
time before you drive away:
All adults, and children who have
outgrown child safety seats, are
wearing their seat belts and
wearing them properly (see page
).
Any infant or small child is
properly restrained in a child seat
in the back seat (see page
).
Front seat occupants are sitting
upright and as far back as possible
from the steering wheel and
dashboard (see page
).
Seat-backs are upright (see page
).
Head restraints are properly
All doors are closed and locked
(seepage
).
All cargo is properly stored or
secured (see page

The rest of this section gives more
detailed information about how you
can maximize your safely.
Remember, however, that no safety
system can prevent all injuries or
deaths that can occur in severe
crashes, even when seat belts are
properly worn and the airbags deploy.
