Q: If I am a good driver, and I never drive far from home, why should I wear safety belts? How to Wear Safety Belts Properly This part is only for people of adult size. Be aware that there are special things to know about safety belts and children. And there are different rules for smaller children and babies. If a child will be riding in your vehicle, see Older Children on page 40 or Infants and Young Children on page 43. Follow those rules for everyone's protection. First, you will want to know which restraint systems your vehicle has. We will start with the driver position. A: You may be an excellent driver, but if you are in an accident - even one that is not your fault - you and your passengers can be hurt. Being a good driver does not protect you from things beyond your control, such as bad drivers. Most accidents occur within 25 miles (40 km) of home. And the greatest number of serious injuries and deaths occur at speeds of less than 40 mph (65 km/h). Safety belts are for everyone. 23
