Question 4013

What safety systems can lose effectiveness if the seat belt is not fastened?

  1. The brakes and the ABS.
  2. The suspension and the shock absorbers.
  3. The airbags and the head restraints.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: The airbags and the head restraints.

Without a seat belt, your body is thrown into the airbag as it inflates and does not stay in position for the head restraint to stop your head's movement. This makes both less effective. The brakes, ABS, and suspension do not depend on the seat belt.
