Examples of incorrect sitting positions
An incorrect sitting position can lead to severe injuries to oc-
cupants.
Seat belts can provide optimal protection only when the belt webs
are properly positioned. Incorrect sitting positions substantially re-
duce the protective function of seat belts and increase the risk of
injury due to incorrect seat belt position. As the driver, you are re-
sponsible for all vehicle occupants, especially children.
– Never allow anyone to assume an incorrect sitting position in
the vehicle while travelling ⇒
