Q:
What if a child is wearing a lap
but the child is so small that the shoulder belt is
very close to the child's face or neck?
A:
Move the child toward the center of the vehicle, but
be sure that the shoulder belt still is on the child's
shoulder, so that in a crash the child's upper body
would have the restraint that belts provide. If the
child is sitting in a seat next to a window, move the
child toward the center of the vehicle. If the child is
sitting in the center rear seat passenger position with
-
a lap
shoulder belt, move the child toward the safety
belt buckle. In either case, be sure that the shoulder
belt still is on the child's shoulder, so that in a crash
the child's upper body would have the restraint that
belts provide. If the child is sitting in a rear seat
outside position, see "Rear Safety Belt Comfort
Guides" in the Index. If the child is so small that the
shoulder belt is still very close to the child's face or
neck, you might want to place the child in a seat that
has a lap belt, if your vehicle has one.
