an accident.
● The shoulder belt must be positioned around the middle of the shoul-
der. The seat belt must lie flat and snugly on the torso ⇒ Fig. 12.
● The lap part of the seat belt must lie across the pelvis, never across
the stomach. The seat belt must lie flat and snugly on the pelvis

The best protection for the unborn child is for the mother to
wear the seat belt properly at all times during the pregnan-
cy.
