The best way to protect the fetus is to protect the
mother. When a safety belt is worn properly, it's more
likely that the fetus won't be hurt in
a
crash. For
pregnant women, as for anyone, the key to making
safety belts effective is wearing them properly.
Right Front Passenger Position
The right front passenger's safety belt works the same
way as the driver's safety belt. See "Driver Position"
earlier in this section.
When the lap belt is pulled out all the way, it will lock.
If it does, let it go back all the way and start again.

You can be severely injured or killed in a crash if
you aren't wearing your safety belt
--
even if you
have air bags. Wearing your safety belt during a
crash helps reduce your chance of hitting things
inside the vehicle or being ejected from it. Air
bags are "supplemental restraints"
to
the safety
belts. All air bags are designed to work with
safety belts, but don't replace them. Air bags are
designed to work only in moderate to severe
crashes where the front of your vehicle hits
something, They aren't designed to inflate at all
in rollover, rear, side or low-speed frontal
crashes. Everyone in your vehicle should wear a
safety belt properly
--

air bag for that person,
