The best way
to
protect the
fetus
is
to
protect the
mother. When a safety belt is worn properly, it’s more
likely that the fetus won’t be hurt in a crash. For
pregnant women, as for anyone, the key
to
making
safety belts effective is wearing them properly.
Right
Front Passenger
Position
The
right front passenger’s safety belt works the same
way as the driver’s safety belt. See “Driver Position,”
earlier
in
this part.
@
Adjust the seat (to see how,
see
“Seats’’
in
the Index)
so
you can sit up straight. Move your seat far enough
forward that your feet touch the part
of
the
car that
is
called the “toeboard”
(A).
That way you’d be less
likely to slide under the lap belt in a crash.
