Larger Children
Children who have outgrown child
restraints should wear the vehicle’s
safety belts. If you have the choice, a
child should sit next
to a window so the
child can wear a lap-shoulder belt and
get the additional restraint a shoulder
belt can provide.
Accident statistics show that children
are safer if they are restrained in the
rear seat. But they need to use the
safety belts properly.
Children who aren’t buckled up can
be thrown
out in a crash.
