Safety Belt Use During
Pregnancy
Safety belts work for everyone,
including pregnant women. Like all
occupants, they are more likely to be
seriously injured if they don't wear
safety belts.
A
pregnant woman should wear a lap-
shoulder belt, and the lap portion should
be worn as low as possible throughout
the pregnancy.
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 the Index under Driver Position.
Adjust the seat (to see how, see the
Index under Seat Controls) so you can
sit up straight. Move your seat far
enough forward that your feet touch the
part of the vehicle that is called the
"toeboard" (A). That way you'd be less
likely to slide under the lap belt in a
crash.
