CAUTION:
Never do this.
Here two children are wearing the same belt. The
belt can't properly spread the impact forces. In a
crash, the two children can be crushed together
and seriously injured. A belt must be used by
only one person at a time.
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 rear outside position of a
-
four
door model, 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.
