How to Use Safety Seat Belts Properly
A safety belt can only protect you if it is used -- and used properly.
Provide enough safety belts for each person traveling in your vehicle. Each person needs their own safety belt. Make sure all safety belts are working properly.
Show you care. Ask passengers in the front and rear seats to use their safety belts. Most people will gladly buckle up if the driver asks them to.
Do not start your car until all safety belts are fastened.
Adjust your safety belt so it fits snugly over your hip bones. It should cross your lap low on the hips, not high across your stomach.
A shoulder belt should go over your shoulder and across your body diagonally. It should never be worn under your arm.
