or the instrument panel...
or the safety belts!
With safety belts, you slow down
as the vehicle does. You get more
time to stop. You stop over more
distance, and your strongest bones
take the forces. That is why safety
belts make such good sense.
Questions and Answers About
Safety Belts
Q: Will I be trapped in the vehicle
after a crash if I am wearing a
safety belt?
A:
You
could
be
—
whether you
are wearing a safety belt or
not. But your chance of being
conscious during and after an
accident, so you
can
unbuckle
and get out, is
much
greater if
you are belted. And you can
unbuckle a safety belt, even if
you are upside down.
Q: If my vehicle has airbags, why
should I have to wear safety
belts?
A:
Airbags are supplemental
systems only; so they work
with
safety belts
—
not instead of
them. Whether or not an airbag
is provided, all occupants still
have to buckle up to get the
most protection. That is true not
only in frontal collisions, but
especially in side and other
collisions.
