 Get in the back, Jack. |
The back seat is a safer place for you to be, just in case you get into a crash. And always wear a seatbelt.
|
| Buckle up right. |
Here's how it
works: the strap you pull across your lap should sit over your hips,
not your tummy. The shoulder strap should go over - you guessed
it - your shoulder and chest. Never under your arm (you could
break your rib this way), and never behind your back (you could hurt
your spine). Remember: if you don't wear your seatbelt properly
and your car crashes, you could really get hurt. And you don't
want that, do you?
|
| Be a buddy. Ask your friends to buckle up right, too! |
If they don't know how, show them. If they don't want to buckle up, explain why they should (tell them about the broken rib - that might work!). Friends look out for friends, and don't let them do stupid things
