Never do this.
Here
a
child
is
sitting
in
a
seat
that
has
a
lap-shoulder belt,
but
the shoulder part
is
behind the child.
If
the child wears the belt
inthis way, in a crash the child might slide
under the belt. The belt’s force would then be
applied right on the child’s abdomen. That
could cause serious or fatal injuries.
Wherever
the
child sits, the lap portion
of
the beit
should be worn low and snug on the hips, just touching
the child’s thighs. This applies belt force
to
the child’s
pelvic bones in
a
crash.
