Pregnant Women Restriction

Pregnant women should wear the lap and shoulder belt assembly whenever possible, in accordance with the specific recommendations of their doctors. The lap portion of the belt should be worn AS SNUG AND AS LOW AS POSSIBLE.

WARNING - Pregnant Women

Pregnant women should never position the lap portion of the seat belt above or over the abdomen, where the fetus is located. The force of the seat belt in a collision will crush the fetus.

Injured Person

The seat belt should be used when transporting an injured person. When necessary, consult a physician for guidance.

One person per belt

Two people (including children) should never attempt to use one seat belt. This may increase the severity of injuries in an accident.

WARNING - Lying Down

Do not allow passengers to lie down while the vehicle is moving. The seat belt cannot provide proper protection to a passenger lying down, and they may suffer serious injury in a collision.
