Q:

What is wrong with this?

A:

The lap belt is too loose. It will
not give nearly as much
protection this way.

{

CAUTION

You can be seriously hurt if your
lap belt is too loose. In a crash,
you could slide under the lap belt
and apply force on your abdomen.
This could cause serious or even
fatal injuries. The lap belt should
be worn low and snug on the
hips, just touching the thighs.

Q:

What is wrong with this?

A:

The belt is buckled in the wrong
buckle.

{

CAUTION

You can be seriously injured if
your belt is buckled in the wrong
place like this. In a crash, the belt
would go up over your abdomen.
The belt forces would be there,
not on the pelvic bones. This
could cause serious internal
injuries. Always buckle your belt
into the buckle nearest you.
