• Wear the lap part of the belt low and snug on the hips, just touching the thighs. In a crash, this applies force to the strong pelvic bones and you would be less likely to slide under the lap belt.

These parts of the body are best able to take belt restraining forces. The shoulder belt locks if there is a sudden stop or crash.
