Q: What if a child is wearing a lap-shoulder belt, but the child is so small that the shoulder belt is very close to the child's face or neck? A: Move the child toward the center of the vehicle, but be sure that the shoulder belt still is on the child's shoulder, so that in a crash the child's upper body would have the restraint that belts provide. If the child is sitting in a rear seat outside position, see Rear Safety BeltComfort Guides for Children and Small Adults on page 1-42. If the child is so small that the shoulder belt is still very close to the child's face or neck, you might wantto place the child in a seat that has a lap belt, if your vehicle has one. Never do this. Here two children are wearing the same belt. The belt can't properly spread the impact forces. In a crash, the two children can be crushed together and seriously injured.A belt must be used by only one person at a time. 1-46
