Safety Belts{CAUTION:Safety Belts: They Are for EveryoneThis part of the manual tells you how to use safetybelts properly. It also tells you some things you shouldnot do with safety belts.{CAUTION:Do not let anyone ride where he or she cannotwear a safety belt properly. If you are in a crashand you are not wearing a safety belt, yourinjuries can be much worse. You can hit thingsinside the vehicle harder or be ejected from itand be seriously injured or killed. In the samecrash, you might not be, if you are buckled up.Always fasten your safety belt, and check thatyour passenger(s) are restrained properly too.1-10It is extremely dangerous to ride in a cargo area,inside or outside of a vehicle. In a collision,people riding in these areas are more likely tobe seriously injured or killed. Do not allowpeople to ride in any area of your vehicle thatis not equipped with seats and safety belts.Be sure everyone in your vehicle is in a seat andusing a safety belt properly.Your vehicle has indicators as a reminder to buckle yoursafety belts. See Safety Belt Reminders on page 3-26.In most states and in all Canadian provinces, thelaw requires wearing safety belts. Here is why:You never know if you will be in a crash. If you do have acrash, you do not know if it will be a serious one.A few crashes are mild, and some crashes can be soserious that even buckled up, a person would not survive.But most crashes are in between. In many of them, peoplewho buckle up can survive and sometimes walk away.Without belts they could have been badly hurt or killed.After more than 40 years of safety belts in vehicles,the facts are clear. In most crashes buckling up doesmatter. a lot!
Why Safety Belts WorkWhen you ride in or on anything, you go as fast asit goes.Put someone on it.Take the simplest vehicle. Suppose it is just a seaton wheels.1-11
Get it up to speed. Then stop the vehicle. The riderdoes not stop.1-12The person keeps going until stopped by something.In a real vehicle, it could be the windshield.
or the instrument panel.or the safety belts!With safety belts, you slow down as the vehicle does.You get more time to stop. You stop over more distance,and your strongest bones take the forces. That is whysafety belts make such good sense.1-13
Questions and Answers AboutSafety BeltsQ: Will I be trapped in the vehicle after a crash ifI am wearing a safety belt?A: You could be — whether you are wearing a safetybelt or not. But your chance of being consciousduring and after an accident, so you can unbuckleand get out, is much greater if you are belted.And you can unbuckle a safety belt, even if you areupside down.Q: If my vehicle has airbags, why should I have towear safety belts?A: Airbags are supplemental systems only; so theywork with safety belts — not instead of them.Whether or not an airbag is provided, all occupantsstill have to buckle up to get the most protection.That is true not only in frontal collisions, butespecially in side and other collisions.1-14Q: If I am a good driver, and I never drive far fromhome, why should I wear safety belts?A: You may be an excellent driver, but if you are in acrash — even one that is not your fault — you andyour passenger(s) can be hurt. Being a gooddriver does not protect you from things beyond yourcontrol, such as bad drivers.Most accidents occur within 25 miles (40 km)of home. And the greatest number of seriousinjuries and deaths occur at speeds of less than40 mph (65 km/h).Safety belts are for everyone.
How to Wear Safety Belts ProperlyThis section is only for people of adult size.Be aware that there are special things to know aboutsafety belts and children. And there are different rulesfor smaller children and babies. If a child will be ridingin your vehicle, see Older Children on page 1-30 orInfants and Young Children on page 1-32. Follow thoserules for everyone’s protection.It is very important for all occupants to buckle up.Statistics show that unbelted people are hurt more oftenin crashes than those who are wearing safety belts.Occupants who are not buckled up can be thrown out ofthe vehicle in a crash. And they can strike others inthe vehicle who are wearing safety belts.First, before you or your passenger(s) wear a safetybelt, there is important information you should know.Sit up straight and always keep your feet on the floor infront of you. The lap part of the belt should be wornlow and snug on the hips, just touching the thighs. In acrash, this applies force to the strong pelvic bonesand you would be less likely to slide under the lap belt.If you slid under it, the belt would apply force onyour abdomen. This could cause serious or even fatalinjuries. The shoulder belt should go over the shoulderand across the chest. These parts of the body arebest able to take belt restraining forces.The shoulder belt locks if there is a sudden stopor crash.1-15

In a crash, you would moveforward too much, which could increase injury.The shoulder belt should fit snugly againstyour body.A: The shoulder belt is too loose.
