In which situation will a fastened safety belt not function properly:

Description

KRBRD (National Road Safety Council)

Explanation

Correct answer: When it is twisted.

A seat belt will not work correctly if it is twisted or routed incorrectly, for example, under the arm. During an accident, a twisted belt concentrates the entire force of the impact on a small area, which can lead to serious internal injuries. A properly fastened belt should lie flat against the body.
