But
don’t
have a seatback
reclined
if
your
vehicle
is
moving.
A
CAUTION:
Sitting in a reclined position when your vehicle is
in motion can be dangerous. Even
if
you buckle
up, your safety belts can’t do their job when
you’re reclined like this.
The shoulder belt can’t do
its
job. In
a
crash you
could go into it, receiving neck or other injuries.
The lap belt can’t
do
its
job either. In
a
crash the
belt could go up over your abdomen. The belt
forces would be there, not
at
your pelvic bones.
This could cause serious internal injuries.
For proper protection when the vehicle
is
in
motion, have the seatback upright. Then
sit
well
back
in
the seat and wear your safety belt properly.
