The lap part of the belt should
be
worn low and snug on the
hips, just touching the thighs.
In
a crash,
this
applies force
to the strong pelvic bones. And you’d be less likely to slide
under the lap belt.
If
you slid under it, the belt would apply
force at your abdomen.
This
could cause serious or even
fatal injuries. The shoulder belt should
go
over the shoulder
and across the chest. These
parts
of
the body
are
best able
to take belt restraining forces.
The safety belt locks if there’s
a
sudden stop
or
a crash.
