What is the difference between a three-point seat belt and a five-point seat belt?
1 Answers
Here are the differences between a three-point seat belt and a five-point seat belt: Different suitable ages: The five-point seat belt is suitable for children under 3 years old. The three-point seat belt is suitable for children over 3 years old. Different choices: The number of points refers to the number of connection points between the seat belt and the seat. The more points, the easier it is to secure a person, but the five-point seat belt is too complicated to use, so it is generally used for child safety seats, racing cars, or modifications. Ordinary family cars usually use three-point seat belts. Different usage: The five-point seat belt protects more parts, and F1 racers use five-point seat belts. Secondly, the main energy absorption points of the three-point seat belt are at the neck and crotch. The pressure on the crotch is harmful not only to boys but also to girls, so it is best to use a five-point seat belt.
