Safety Belt Use During Pregnancy

Safety belts work for everyone, including pregnant

women. Like all occupants, they are more likely to

be seriously injured if they do not wear safety belts.

A pregnant woman should wear a lap-shoulder belt,

and the lap portion should be worn as low as

possible, below the rounding, throughout the

pregnancy.

The best way to protect the fetus is to protect the

mother. When a safety belt is worn properly, it is

more likely that the fetus will not 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 26.

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,

let the belt go back all the way and start again.

Rear Seat Passengers

It is very important for rear seat passengers to

buckle up! Accident statistics show that unbelted

people in the rear seat are hurt more often in

crashes than those who are wearing safety belts.

Rear passengers who are not safety belted can be

thrown out of the vehicle in a crash. And they

can strike others in the vehicle who are wearing

safety belts.
