Question 3788

Proper adjustment of the headrest reduces the possibility of suffering...

  1. the submarining effect.
  2. fatigue while driving.
  3. whiplash.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: whiplash.

A head restraint at the correct height and close to your head stops it from moving sharply backward in a crash, especially if you are hit from behind. This reduces the risk of whiplash. A snug seat belt prevents submarining, and the head restraint has nothing to do with fatigue.
