Your Car's Safety Features

Pre-Drive Safety Checklist

To make sure you and your
passengers get the maximum
protection from your car's safety
features, check the following each
time before you drive away:
All adults, and children who have
outgrown child safely seats, are
wearing their seat belts and
wearing them properly (see page
16).
Any infant or small child is
properly restrained in a child seat
in the back seat (see page 21).
Driver and Passenger Safety
Front seat occupants are sitting
upright and as far back as possible
from the steering wheel and
dashboard (see page 13).
Seat-backs are upright (see page
14).
Head restraints are properly
adjusted (see page 15).
All doors are closed and locked
(see page 13).
All cargo is properly stored or
secured (see page 169).
The rest of this section gives more
detailed information about how you
can maximize your safety.
Remember, however, that no safety
system can prevent all injuries or
deaths that can occur in severe
crashes, even when seat belts are
properly worn and the airbags deploy.
