CAUTION
It
is
extremely
dangerous
to
ride
in
a
cargo
area,
inside
or
outside
of
a
vehicle.
In
a
collision,
people
riding
in
these
areas
are
more
likely
to
be
seriously
injured
or
killed.
Do
not
allow
people
to
ride
in
any
area
of
your
vehicle
that
is
not
equipped
with
seats
and
safety
belts.
Be
sure
everyone
in
your
vehicle
is
in
a
seat
and
using
a
safety
belt
properly.
This
vehicle
has
indicators
as
a
reminder
to
buckle
the
safety
belts.
See
Safety
Belt
Reminders
on
page
3-30
for
additional
information.
In
most
states
and
in
all
Canadian
provinces,
the
law
requires
wearing
safety
belts.
Here
is
why:
You
never
know
if
you
will
be
in
a
crash.
If
you
do
have
a
crash,
you
do
not
know
if
it
will
be
a
serious
one.
A
few
crashes
are
mild,
and
some
crashes
can
be
so
serious
that
even
buckled
up,
a
person
would
not
survive.
But
most
crashes
are
in
between.
In
many
of
them,
people
who
buckle
up
can
survive
and
sometimes
walk
away.
Without
safety
belts
they
could
have
been
badly
hurt
or
killed.
After
more
than
40
years
of
safety
belts
in
vehicles,
the
facts
are
clear.
In
most
crashes
buckling
up
does
matter...
a
lot!
Why
Safety
Belts
Work
When
you
ride
in
or
on
anything,
you
go
as
fast
as
it
goes.
Take
the
simplest
vehicle.
Suppose
it
is
just
a
seat
on
wheels.
