Safety Belts for Children

Children who are too large for child safety seats
should always wear safety belts. (See instructions
with your child seat, or contact its manufacturer, to
determine maximum size of child that will safely fit
in the seat.)
WARNING
If safety belts are not properly worn
and adjusted as described, the risk of
serious injury to the child in a collision
will be much greater.
If the shoulder belt portion of the lap/shoulder belt
can be positioned so that it does not cross or rest
in front of the child's face or neck, the child should
wear the lap/shoulder belt. Moving the child closer
to the seat belt buckle may help provide a good
shoulder belt fit.
