Larger Children
Children who have
outgrown child
restraints should we
the vehicle’s safety
belts. .ar
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.
a Children who aren’t buckled up can be thrown out in a crash.
Children who aren’t buckled up can strike other people who are.

A: Move the child toward the center of the vehicle, but be sure that 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 provi\
de.
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 a seat that has a lap
belt, if
your vehicle has one.
