{CAUTION:

Never do this.

Here two children are wearing the same belt.

The belt can’t properly spread the impact

forces. In a crash, the two children can be

crushed together and seriously injured. A belt

must be used by only one person at a time.

Q: What if a child is wearing a lap-shoulder belt,

but the child is so small that the shoulder belt

is very close to the child’s face or neck?

A: If the child is sitting in a seat next to a window,

move the child toward the center of the vehicle.

If the child is sitting in the center rear seat

passenger position, move the child toward the

safety belt buckle. In either case, be sure that the

shoulder belt still is on the child’s shoulder, so

that in a crash the child’s upper body would have

the restraint that belts provide.

If the child is sitting in a rear seat, see Rear Safety

Belt Comfort Guides for Children and Small

Adults on page 1-44.
