these areas are more likely to be seriously injured or
killed.
• Do not allow people to ride in any area of your
vehicle that is not equipped with seats and seat belts.
In a collision, people riding in these areas are more
likely to be seriously injured or killed. (Continued) WARNING! (Continued)• Be sure everyone in your vehicle is in a seat and
