Should Rear Seat Passengers Wear Seat Belts?
1 Answers
Rear seat passengers should wear seat belts. Not wearing a seat belt in the back seat not only seriously endangers the safety of the front seat occupants but also poses a safety risk to oneself. In the event of an accident, without the protection of a seat belt, rear seat passengers may directly collide with the front seat backs, resulting in injuries to the nose bridge, arms, cervical spine, etc. Article 51 of the Road Traffic Safety Law stipulates that drivers and passengers must use seat belts as required when the vehicle is in motion. Accordingly, failure to wear a seat belt while the vehicle is moving is considered a violation of the law. Precautions for using seat belts: Regularly check the technical condition of the seat belt, and replace it immediately if damaged. When using the seat belt, avoid placing it over hard or fragile objects such as mobile phones, glasses, or pens in pockets. When the seat is unoccupied, retract the seat belt into the retractor and place the buckle in the storage position to prevent it from hitting other objects during emergency braking. The function of car seat belts: Car seat belts are safety devices designed to restrain occupants during a collision, prevent secondary collisions with the steering wheel or dashboard, or avoid being ejected from the vehicle, which could lead to fatalities or injuries.
