How To Prevent Seat Belt Entanglement On Kids by AutoJoshNG: 5:15pm On Sep 04, 2019


Seat belt entanglement is one of the 5 Ways Kids Can Get Hurt When Inside A Car. As we’ve stated before, kids easily get bored and will always reach out to the nearest thing to them to play with.

A child within reach of a seat belt may become entangled if he or she pulls the seat belt all the way out and wraps the belt around his or her head, neck, or waist. In some cases, this resulted to very serious injuries on kids.

Seat belt entanglement can happen if you do not properly restrain your child, for example, if you let the child lie down or sleep on the vehicle seat instead of being properly restrained. Older children who are no longer in a car seat can become entangled by pulling a seat belt all the way out of the retractor or by playing with an unused seat belt.

Below are ways to prevent kids from being entangled by seat belts

1. Do not let children play in or around cars.

2. Always ensure children are properly restrained.

3. Teach children that seat belts are not toys.

4. If a child has an unused seat belt within reach, buckle unused seat belts.

5. Never leave your children alone in or around a vehicle for any reason. Seat belt entanglement can happen in the blink of an eye.

The way your posts fly to the front page even before you upload them makes me smell roasted fish in the fire.

I didn't say anything.

Nice and quite educative AutoJosh.

But then, always ensure you avoid plagiarism in part or in full. At the least, reference the source when you copy other peoples' works even if modified to fit your purpose.

This is Very Important

But sadly, most people don't even use seatbelts

They think it's only for the driver and front seat passengers
