believing "It'll never happen to me!". Volvo urges you and all adult occupants of your car to wear seat 
belts and ensure that children are properly restrained, using an infant, car or booster seat determined by 
age, weight and height.

mandate seat belt usage. The few seconds it takes to buckle up may one day allow you to say, "It's a 
good thing I was wearing my seat belt".
