"A friend who is a paramedic, and my mother who is an EMT, states that they
always put the shoulder strap under their arm, as they have seen many people
with slashed corrodid arteries from the seat belt.  It is shared as
hopefully helpful information."


I have done this before when driving a car not my own because I cannot bear
the seat belt rubbing the side of my neck. Unfortunately very, very few cars
have seat belts at the correct level for everyone, even if they are
adjustable. In my own car I have a clip attached to the top of the seat belt
to loosen it. One can also buy a sort of 'cushion' to tie around the seat
belt so that it is more comfortable around the neck, but I can't stand that
either - especially in the hot summer because my car is not airconditioned.
But, my question is, is it legally acceptable to put the seat belt under the
arm? ...I've often wondered.
