Make sure all seats are properly locked in
position before driving off. Do not drive with
seats not properly locked.

dangerous. The seat could move forward
and the seat backrest could fold. You could
slide under the seat belt during braking,
vehicle maneuvers, or in an accident. If you
slide under it, the seat belt would apply
force at the abdomen or neck. That could
cause serious or even fatal injuries. Never
