CAUTION:
{
Never do this.
Here two children are wearing the same
belt. The belt can not 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-shoulder
belt, but the child is so small that the
shoulder belt is very close to the child's
face or neck?
A:
If the child is sitting in a seat next to a
window, move the child toward the center of
the vehicle. If the child is sitting in the
center rear seat passenger position, move the
child toward the safety belt buckle. In either
case, 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.
