What is the main purpose of the seat belt?

Correct answer

Restrain and protect occupants in a crash.

It restrains occupants and reduces the risk of striking the interior or being ejected during a collision or sudden braking. It must be correctly positioned and fitted. Its function is protection; it does not itself prevent crashes or make an airbag unnecessary.
