an accident. The dangers of assuming an
incorrect sitting position
Please refer to at the start of the chap-
ter on page 34.
If the seat belts are not worn or are worn in-
correctly, the risk of se

increases. Seat belts can only provide optimal
protection if the seat belt routing is correct.
Assuming an incorrect sitting position con-
siderably impairs the level of protection pro-
vided by a seat belt. This could lead to severe
or even fatal injuries. The risk of severe or fa-
tal injuries is especially increased when a de-
ploying airbag strikes a vehicle occupant who
has assumed an incorrect sitting position.
The driver is responsible for all occupants
transported in the vehicle, especially children.
The following list contains examples of sit-
ting positions that can be dangerous for all
vehicle occupants.
