BDifficulty 2/5

If you do not have your seat belt fitted correctly, can this affect the consequences of an accident?

Correct answer

Yes, since you could suffer serious injuries.

Not wearing a seat belt, or not using other safety features of the vehicle, can negatively affect the consequences of a road traffic accident, potentially causing more serious injuries to the driver and occupants than if they were travelling with the seat belt properly fastened.
