or the safety belts!

With safety belts, you slow down as
the vehicle does. You get more

distance, and your strongest bones
take the forces. That is why
safety belts make such good sense.

Questions and Answers About
Safety Belts

Q:

Will I be trapped in the vehicle
after a crash if I am wearing a
safety belt?

A:

You could be — whether you are
wearing a safety belt or not. But
your chance of being conscious
during and after an accident,
so you can unbuckle and get out,
is much greater if you are
belted. And you can unbuckle a
safety belt, even if you are
upside down.
