Advice
for
Pregnant
Women
Because protecting the mother is the
best way to protect
her
unborn child,
a pregnant woman should always
wear a seat belt whenever she drives
or rides
in
a vehicle.
Remember to keep the lap portion of
the belt as
low
as possible across
your hips.
Protecting Adults
Pregnant women should also sit
upright and as far back as possible
from the steering wheel or
dashboard. This
will
reduce the risk
of injuries to both the mother and
her
unborn child that can be caused
by a crash or an inflating airbag.
Each time you have a check-up, ask
your doctor
if
it's okay for you to
drive.
