Occupant safety
Not wearing a seat belt is like believing "It'll never
happen to me!". Volvo, the inventor of the three-point
seat belt, urges you and all adult occupants of your car
to wear seat belts and ensure that children are properly
restrained, using an infant, car or booster seat
determined by age, weight and height. Volvo also
believes no child should sit in the front seat of a car.
Fact: In every state and province, some type of child-
restraint legislation has been passed. Additionally,
most states and provinces have already made it
mandatory for occupants of a car to use seat belts.
So, urging you to "buckle up" is not just our
recommendation - legislation in your state or province
may mandate seat belt usage. The few seconds it takes
to buckle up may one day allow you to say, "It's a
good thing I was wearing my seat belt".
