Correct answer
By checking the anchorages and buckles.
Check anchorages, buckle and webbing according to the manufacturer’s instructions; do not test it by harsh acceleration or braking. The buckle must latch correctly and the webbing must be undamaged and untwisted. The diagonal band should pass across the centre of the collarbone between shoulder and neck and over the chest; the lower band should fit snugly over the pelvis below the abdomen. Seek inspection if damaged or after an impact. These checks do not guarantee protection in every crash.
