Explanation
A seat belt holds us in place when a car stops suddenly or crashes and lowers the risk of injury. In a car we always wear a seat belt and sit in the child seat meant for small children. On the road we don’t run or play and don’t cross with earphones on. Before crossing we look left and right.
Worked examples
“The belt is a friend”. Bobur got into the car and put on his seat belt right away. His uncle said: “We’re only going a short way.” Bobur said: “An accident doesn’t know if the trip is short or long. The belt is needed every time.” His uncle smiled and put on his own belt too.
