Occupant safety

Not wearing a seat belt is like believing "It'll never

happen to me!". Volvo, the inventor of the three-point

seat belt, urges you and all adult occupants of your car

to wear seat belts and ensure that children are properly

restrained, using an infant, car or booster seat

determined by age, weight and height. Volvo also

believes no child should sit in the front seat of a car.
Fact: In every state and province, some type of child-

restraint legislation has been passed. Additionally,

most states and provinces have already made it

mandatory for occupants of a car to use seat belts.
So, urging you to "buckle up" is not just our

recommendation - legislation in your state or province

may mandate seat belt usage. The few seconds it takes

to buckle up may one day allow you to say, "It's a

good thing I was wearing my seat belt".
