- It makes no difference.
- Yes, it is more comfortable.
- No, the seat belt can lose effectiveness because it is not snug against the body.
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: No, the seat belt can lose effectiveness because it is not snug against the body.
No. A thick coat like the one in the image leaves the seat belt loose. In a crash, your body moves forward before the belt slows it down. Take it off before buckling up.
