A nine-year-old’s shoulder belt crosses the neck, and the lap belt sits on the abdomen. What should the driver do?
Correct answer: Keep using a booster or restraint until the belt fits correctly.
Why
The adult-belt stage requires correct fit: the lap portion lies snugly across the thighs rather than the abdomen, and the shoulder portion crosses the chest and shoulder rather than the neck. The child must be able to sit properly against the seat with knees bent at its edge. Use the more protective applicable restraint instead of bypassing a badly fitting belt.
