Never do this. Here two children are wearing the samebelt. The belt can't properly spread the impact forces. In a crash, thetwo children can be crushed together and seriously injured. A belt must be used by only oneperson at a time. Q: What if a child is wearing a lap-shoulder belt, but thechild isso small that the shoulderbelt is very closeto the child's face or neck? A: Move the child toward the center of the vehicle, but be surethat 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 so small that the shoulder belt is still very close to the child's face or neck, you might want to place the child in the center seatposition, the one that has only a lap belt. 1-62
