The Seat Belt System and How It Works Why Wear Seat Belts Wearing seat belts, and wearing them properly, is fundamental to your safety and the safety of your passengers. During a crash or emergency stop, seat belts can help keep you from being thrown against the inside of the car, against other occupants, or out of the car. Of course, seat belts cannot completely protect you in every crash. But, in most cases, seat belts reduce your chance of serious injury. They can even save your life. That is why many states and all Canadian provinces require you to wear seat belts. Not wearing a seat belt increases the chance of being killed or seriously hurt in a crash. Be sure you and your passengers always wear seat belts and wear them properly. Important Safety Reminders Seat belts are designed for adults and larger children. All infants and small children must be properly restrained in child safety seats (see page 27 ). A pregnant woman needs to wear a seat belt to protect herself and her unborn child (see page 18 ). Two people should never use the same seat belt. If they do, they could be very seriously injured in a crash. Do not put shoulder belt pads or other accessories on seat belts. They can reduce the effectiveness of the belts and increase the chance of injury. (cont'd)
