Buckle your lap and shoulder belts. Air bags are designed to work in conjunction with seat belts.
If your car has adjustable shoulder-belt anchors, slide your anchor down as far as is comfortable.
Children under age 12 should ride in the back seat. Children younger than 8 should ride in an age-appropriate car seat or booster. Older children should use lap and shoulder belts.
