Seat belts are required in cars because they lessen the risk of death or serious injury in the case of an accident by keeping people properly positioned and preventing them from being ejected from the vehicle. However, many individuals are unaware of another application for this belt. When your car breaks down, you may need to push it, which can be a difficult task if you have to do it alone. In this circumstance, your seat belt can be really useful. Here’s a quick demonstration of how to do it.
Keeping your seat belt over your shoulders while pushing your car will help prevent your arms from getting tired out, as the seat belt uses your back and core strength to haul the car as you push, making the task far more easier. After you’re all strapped up, hold on to the steering wheel so you can still maneuver your car, and you’re ready to go! The short video below illustrates.
