sure that the shoulder belt

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.

Safety Belt Extender

If the vehicle's safety belt will fasten

around you, you should use it.

But if a safety belt is not long

enough, your dealer/retailer will

order you an extender. When you

go in to order it, take the heaviest

coat you will wear, so the extender

will be long enough for you. To help

avoid personal injury, do not let

someone else use it, and use it

only for the seat it is made to fit.

The extender has been designed

for adults. Never use it for securing

child seats. To wear it, attach it to

the regular safety belt. For more

information, see the instruction

sheet that comes with the extender.
