If a front outer seat passenger leans
sideways and his head is in the
deployment path of the side airbag,
an inflating side airbag can strike the
passenger with enough force to very
seriously injure him.
When driving, remember to sit
upright and adjust the seat as far
back as possible while allowing full
control of the vehicle. When riding
as a front passenger, adjust the seat
as far back as possible.
This will reduce the risk of injuries
to both you and your unborn child
that can be caused by a crash or an
inflating front airbag.
Each time you have a checkup, ask
your doctor if it’s okay for you to
drive.
If you are pregnant, the best way to
protect yourself and your unborn
child when driving or riding in a
vehicle is to always wear a seat belt,
and keep the lap part of the belt as
low as possible across the hips.

Sitting improperly or out of
position can result in serious
injury or death in a crash.
Always sit upright, well back
in the seat, with your feet on
the floor.
