Question 2478

  2. Yes, because this adjusts the pressure to the person's build.
  3. No, because they reduce the effectiveness of the seat belt.

Correct answer: No, because they reduce the effectiveness of the seat belt.

Clips introduce slack and prevent the seat belt from fitting snugly against the body. This reduces its effectiveness and makes their use dangerous.
