You can be severely injured or killed in
a
crash if
you aren't wearing your .safety ,belt
--
even if you
have an air bag. Wearing your safety belt during
a
.crash helps reduce your chance of hitting things
inside the vehicle or being ejected from
it.
The
air
bag
is
only
a
"supplemental restraint." That is, it
works with safety belts but doesn'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 a l l
in
rollover, rear, side or low-speed frontal crashes.
Everyone in your vehiele, including the driver,
should wear a safety belt properly
--
whether or
not there's an air bag for that person.
