Explanation
Seat belts and child safety restraints save thousands of lives each year. Always wear your shoulder belt over your shoulder and across your chest, ensuring it fits snugly with minimal slack. Never wear the shoulder belt under your arm or behind your back. Both the shoulder and lap belts must be worn correctly - otherwise, you risk sliding out of the belt or suffering serious internal injuries in a crash.
