It is important that the belt is properly routed to ensure seat belts offer the
maximum protection.
The shoulder belt should be positioned approximately over the middle of your
shoulder (on no account across your neck) and lie flush to the chest
.
The lower part of the belt should run across the pelvis (it should not lie on top
of the stomach) and must always fit snugly
For pregnant women, the lower part of the belt must be positioned as low
down as possible across the pelvis, to avoid exerting any pressure on the lower
abdomen

WARNING
Always ensure that the webbing of the seat belts is properly routed. Seat
■
belts which are not correctly adjusted can themselves cause injuries even in
minor accidents.
A seat belt which is hanging too loose can result in injuries as your body is
■
moved forward by the kinetic energy produced in an accident and is then
suddenly held firm by the belt.
The belt webbing must not run across solid or fragile objects (e.g. pencils,
■
spectacles, pens, keys etc.). Such objects can cause injury.
