Question 8047

Is there any vehicle safety device that can replace the seat belt?

  1. Yes, the driver's airbag.
  2. No, although other devices complement it in the event of an accident.
  3. Yes, ergonomic seats that adapt to the shape of the body.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: No, although other devices complement it in the event of an accident.

No. No device in the car does the seat belt’s job. The airbag and head restraint complement it and are less effective without it. An ergonomic seat won’t hold you in place in a crash either.
