A
CAUTION:
Never do
this.
Here
a
child
is
sitting in
a
seat
that has
a
lap-shoulder belt., but the shoulder part
is
behind
the child.
If
the child wears the belt in this
way,
in
a
crash the child might slide under the
belt.
The
belt's force would then be applied right on the
child's abdomen. That could cause serious
or
fatal injuries.
Wherever the child sits, the
lap
portion
of
the
belt
should
be
worn
low
and
snug on the hips, just touching
the
child's thighs. This applies belt force
to
the
child's
pelvic bones in
a
crash.
