Fasten you air bag.

|
|
Adjust your seat and mirrors.
|
|

|
|
|
Shift the transmission to neutral.

Explanation
You should always check and adjust your seat and mirrors before you start to drive, and make any adjustments before you drive off. Properly adjusting your seat can help you maintain good posture and ensure that you can reach the pedals and steering wheel comfortably. You should sit so the air bag will hit you in the chest if there is a collision. Rear view mirrors should be adjusted so that you can see out the back window, while side mirrors should be adjusted to give you a view of the sides of your vehicle when you lean forward slightly.
