1998 Volvo S90
Chapter 1 - Occupant safety
Occupant safety
pg. 1
Despite our strongest recommendations,
and your best intentions, not wearing a
seat belt is like believing "It'll never
happen to me!". Volvo, the inventor of
the three-point seat belt, urges you and
all adult occupants of your car to wear
seat belts and ensure that children are
properly restrained, using an infant, car
or booster seat determined by age,
weight and height.
Fact: In every state and province, some
type of child-restraint legislation has
been passed. Additionally, most states
and provinces have already made it
mandatory for occupants of a car to use
seat belts.
So, urging you to "buckle up" is not just
our recommendation - legislation in your
state or province may mandate seat belt
usage. The few seconds it takes to
buckle up may one day allow you to say,
"It's a good thing I was wearing my seat
belt".
