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
To
learn how to wear the right front passenger’s safety
belt properly, see
Driver Position on
page
7-28.
The right front passenger’s safety belt works the same
way as the driver’s safety belt
-
except for one thing.
If you ever pull the shoulder portion of the belt out all the
way, you will engage the child restraint locking feature.
If
this happens, just let the belt go back all the way and
start again.
