A passenger in your car puts the shoulder belt behind the back because it rubs the neck. The car has air bags. What should you tell the passenger?
Correct answer: Wear it across the chest and shoulder, with the lap belt low and snug on the hips.
Why
Many vehicles let you adjust the height of the shoulder belt so that it stays off the neck. South Carolina has a primary belt law, so an officer may stop a vehicle when the officer clearly sees an occupant who is not buckled up. Belts keep you in your seat and help the driver keep control in a crash.
