Seatbelts Save Mother and Unborn Child

Sonora, CA...An accident behind Longs Drugs on Tuolumne Road this morning could have had tragic consequences if not for proper seat belt use. Following is the CHP Release from Officer Scott... "Taren Thomas was driving her 2001 Subaru Forester northbound on Tuolumne Road south of Terrace Road in Tuolumne County. Ms. Thomas allowed her vehicle to drift off the east edge of the roadway and unto the uneven shoulder. M. Thomas over-corrected and lost control of her vehicle. The Subaru collided with a guard rail prior to traveling down an embankment where it overturned and was impaled through the roof by a concrete pole....

Ms. Thomas is pregnant and the proper use of seat belts saved Ms. Thomas and her unborn child from serious injury.

Information for wearing seat belts while pregnant;

Be sure to wear your seat belt correctly. The lap strap should go under your belly, across your hips and as high as possible on your thighs. The shoulder strap should go between your breasts an off to the side of your belly. Seat belt straps should never go directly across your stomach. The seat belt should fit snugly. If possible, adjust the height of the shoulder strap so that if fits you correctly.

Ms. Thomas was taken to Sonora Regional Medical Center with minor injuries...
