Traffic Advisory for the Week of June 2 - 8, 2025
May 30, 2025Road Safety Reminder for the week of June 2 - 8, 2025
Seat Belts
Wearing the lap belt and shoulder harness of a seat belt will increase your chance of survival in most types of collisions.
When you are in a collision, your vehicle stops. But you keep moving at the same speed you were traveling. You only stop when you hit the dashboard or windshield. If you are struck from the side, the impact could push you back and forth across the seat. Seat and shoulder belts keep you in a better position to control the vehicle. They may also minimize serious injuries.
It is important to wear the seat belt correctly to avoid injury or death:
- Wear the shoulder harness across your shoulder and chest. There should be little to no slack. Do not wear the shoulder belt under your arm or behind your back.
- Adjust the lap belt so that it is snug and lies low across your hips. Otherwise, you might slide out of the belt in a crash.
- If you are pregnant, wear the lap belt as low as possible under your abdomen. Place the shoulder strap across your chest and to the side of your abdomen’s bulge.
