Safetybelts - Buick PARKAVENUE 1994 Manual

Safety Belts: They're For Everyone
This part
of
the manual tells you how to use safety belts
properly. It also tells you some things you should not do
with safety belts.
And it explains the Supplemental Restraint System, or
"air bag" system.

This figure lights up
as a reminder to
buckle up. (See
"Safety Belt
Reminder Light" in
the Index.)
In many states and Canadian provinces, the law says to
wear safety belts. Here's why: They work.
You never know if you'll be in a crash. If you do have a
crash, you don't know if it will be a bad one.
A few crashes are mild, and some crashes can be so
serious that even buckled up a person wouldn't survive.
But most crashes are in between. In many of them,
people who buckle up can survive and sometimes walk
away. Without belts they could have been badly hurt or
killed.
