Safety Belts
This section of the manual describes how to
use safety belts properly. It also describes
some things not to do with safety belts.
Warning
Do not let anyone ride where a safety
belt cannot be worn properly. In a crash,
if you or your passenger(s) are not
wearing safety belts, injuries can be
much worse than if you are wearing
safety belts. You can be seriously injured
or killed by hitting things inside the
vehicle harder or by being ejected from
the vehicle. In addition, anyone who is
not buckled up can strike other
passengers in the vehicle.
It is extremely dangerous to ride in a
cargo area, inside or outside of a
(Continued)
Warning
Vehicle. In a collision, passengers riding
in these areas are more likely to be
seriously injured or killed. Do not allow
passengers to ride in any area of the
vehicle that is not equipped with seats
and safety belts.
Always wear a safety belt, and check
that all passenger(s) are restrained
properly too.
Why Safety Belts Work
When riding in a vehicle, you travel as fast
as the vehicle does. If the vehicle stops
suddenly, you keep going until something
stops you. It could be the windshield, the
instrument panel, or the safety belts!
When you wear a safety belt, you and the
vehicle slow down together. There is more
time to stop because you stop over a longer
distance and, when worn properly, your
strongest bones take the forces from the
safety belts. That is why wearing safety
belts make such good sense.
