b

v

ehicle,   the   seat   belts   and   airbags   to   reduce   the   risk   of   injury   in   the   event  
o

f   a   collision.

The driver must ensure that passengers use the seat belts correctly and that they are all
restrained

t

he   device   by   pulling   the   strap   firmly   and   then  
r

eleasing   it   so   that   it   reels   in   slightly.In
  order   to   be   effective,   a   seat   belt   must:
-  b e   tightened   as   close   to   the   body   as  
p

ossible,
-
