Seats & Safety Belts
Don’t have a seatback reclined if your vehicle is moving.
I
AN101020
Ir Sitting in a reclined positiin when your vehicle is in motion can. be
4 dangerous. Even if you buckle up, your safety belts can’t do their job
when you’re reclined like this.
The shoulder belt can’t do its job because it won’t be against your
body. Instead, it
will be in front of you. In a crash you could go into
it, receiving neck or other injuries.
The lap belt can’t do its job either. In a crash the belt could go up
ov0f your abdomen. The belt forces would be there, not at your
petvic bones. This could cause serious internal injuries,
For proper protection when the vehicle is in motion, have the seat-
back
upright. Then sit well back in the seat and wear your safety
belt properly.
