Question 4444

If you have an accident and are not wearing your seat belt, your chances of being killed in the crash are almost twice as high in...

  1. every seat in the vehicle.
  2. the driver's seat only.
  3. the front seats only.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: every seat in the vehicle.

In every seat. Rear passengers travel at the same speed as those in front and slow down just as abruptly in a crash. Without a seat belt, any occupant has almost twice the risk of dying. An unbelted rear passenger can also seriously injure those in front.
