Question 20

• Regular maintenance ensures safety features function correctly during a crash to prevent failure.
• Two specific features requiring maintenance: brakes and airbags/seatbelts.

Question 21

• A three-point belt secures both the upper body (torso) and lower body (pelvis), whereas a lap belt only secures the pelvis.
• It distributes the impact force over a wider area of the body (chest, shoulders, and pelvis) and prevents the upper body from flying forward and hitting the steering wheel or dashboard.

Question 20

Regular maintenance ensures that safety systems function reliably during an emergency or collision, preventing mechanical failure when they are needed most.

Two specific features that need regular maintenance:

1. Brakes (to ensure adequate stopping power and prevent wear)
2. Seatbelts (to check for fraying, tensioner function, and locking mechanism reliability)

Question 21

A three-point belt secures both the pelvis and the upper torso, whereas a lap belt only secures the pelvis. This provides two main advantages:

1. Force Distribution: It spreads the impact force over stronger skeletal areas (shoulders, chest, and pelvis) rather than concentrating it solely on the abdomen.
2. Movement Prevention: It keeps the upper body from whipping forward, preventing the head and chest from colliding with the dashboard, steering wheel, or front seats.
