Safety Belts: They Are for Everyone

This part of the manual tells you how to use
safety belts properly. It also tells you some things
you should not do with safety belts.
CAUTION:
{
Do not let anyone ride where he or she
cannot wear a safety belt properly. If you
are in a crash and you are not wearing a
safety belt, your injuries can be much
worse. You can hit things inside the
vehicle or be ejected from it. You can be
seriously injured or killed. In the same
crash, you might not be, if you are
buckled up. Always fasten your safety
belt, and check that your passengers'
belts are fastened properly too.
