7. Maintain a Proper Sitting
Position
After all occupants have adjusted
their seats and put on seat belts, it
is very important that they
continue to sit upright, well back
in their seats, with their feet on
the floor, until the vehicle is
parked and the engine
is off.
Sitting improperly can increase
the chance of injury during a
crash. For example, if an occupant
slouches, lies down, turns
sideways, sits forward, leans
forward or sideways, or puts one
or both feet up, the chance of
injury during a crash is greatly
increased.
In addition, an occupant who is
out of position in the front seat
can be seriously or fatally injured
by striking interior parts of the
vehicle, or by being struck by an
inflating airbag.
Remember, to get the best
protection from your vehicle's
airbags and other safety features,
you must sit properly and wear
your seat belt properly.
Advice for Pregnant Women
Because protecting the mother is
the best way to protect her unborn
child, a pregnant woman should
always wear a seat belt whenever
she drives or rides in a vehicle.
Driver and Passenger Safety
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.
