What’s
wrong
with this?
A:
The shoulder belt
is
worn
under the
ann.
It should
be
worn
over the shoulder at all times.
I
A
CAUTION:
You
can be seriously injured
if
you wear the
shoulder belt under your arm. In
a
crash,
your
body would move too
far
forward, which would
increase the chance
of
head and neck injury.
Also,
the belt would apply too much force to
the
ribs, which aren’t
as
strong
as
shoulder bones.
You could also severely injure internal organs
like your liver
or
spleen.
