Introduction.
Safety belts only offer the optimum protection during a collision and reduce the risk of serious injury or death if they are
fastened and positioned correctly. The correct safety belt position also holds the vehicle occupant in place so that the airbags
can provide their maximum protection if they deploy. Therefore, all vehicle occupants should always fasten their own safety
belts and make sure they are positioned correctly fig. 26.
An incorrect seating position can cause severe or fatal injuries ⇒ Seating position.
