The Seat Belt System and How It Works
Advice for Pregnant Women
Protecting the mother is the best
way to protect her unborn child.
Therefore, a pregnant woman
should wear a properly
positioned seat belt whenever
she drives or rides in a car.
If possible, use the lap/shoulder
seat belt, remembering to keep
the lap portion as low as possible
(see page
7
).
Each time you have a check-up,
ask your doctor if its okay for you
to drive and how you should
position a lap/shoulder seat belt.
Seat Belt Maintenance
For safety, you should check the
condition of your seat belts
regularly.
Pull out each belt fully and look
for frays, cuts, burns and wear.
Check to see that the latches
work smoothly and the
lap/shoulder belts retract easily.
Any belt not in good condition or
not working properly should be
replaced.
If a seat belt is worn during a
crash, have your dealer replace
the belt and check the anchors
for damage.
For information on how to clean
your seat belts, see page
157
