BDifficulty 2/5

A very bulky coat prevents the seat belt from fitting closely to your body. Is that an appropriate way to use the belt?

Correct answer

No, correct the fit before moving off.

No. Very bulky clothing can reduce belt fit and effectiveness. Before moving off, remove or adjust the garment so the belt can be positioned correctly; do not drive without fastening it. The diagonal strap should cross the collarbone between neck and shoulder, and the lap strap should sit low over the pelvis.
