Driver and Passenger Safety

Do not put any accessories on a
seat belt.
Devices intended to
improve occupant comfort, or
reposition the shoulder part of a
seat belt, severely compromise the
protective capability of the seat
belt and increase the chance of
serious injury in a crash.

Two children should never use
the same seat belt.
If they do,
they could be very seriously
injured in a crash.

Using a Booster Seat

If a child needs a booster seat, we
recommend choosing a style that
allows the child to use the
lap/shoulder belt directly, without
a shield, as shown.

Whichever style you select,
follow the booster seat maker’s
instructions.

A child may continue using a
booster seat until the tops of the
ears are even with the top of the
seat-back. A child of this height,
should be tall enough to use the
lap/shoulder belt without a
booster.

When Can a Larger Child Sit in
Front
The National Highway Traffic
Safety Administration
recommends that all children ages

12

and under be properly

restrained in the back seat.
