Question 4044
What is advisable to do to check that the seat belt is working properly?
- You should use the seat belts and accelerate the vehicle sharply.
- Nothing; it is not necessary to check that the seat belt is working.
- The anchors and buckles should be checked.
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: The anchors and buckles should be checked.
Check the anchor points, which must be secure, and the buckle, which must latch and release properly. Also check that the belt has no cuts and locks when you give it a sharp tug. A damaged seat belt will not restrain you properly in a crash. Accelerating suddenly with your seat belt on does not test it.
