When breaks are applied the seat of the child will continue in its state of constant velocity  (in the direction of the windscreen which can be fatal), when the child is secured the belt will exert a net force in opposite direction  that will accelerate the child back to the safety position in the child’s seat.  (Volgens Newton se eerste wet sal die motor teen ʼn konstante snelheid beweeg). Wanneer remme toegepas word, sal die kind se sitplek in sy toestand van konstante snelheid bly (in die rigting van die voorruit wat noodlottig kan wees), wanneer die kind vasgemaak is, sal die gordel ʼn netto krag in die teenoorgestelde rigting uitoefen wat die kind terug na die veiligheidsposisie in die kinderstoel sal versnel.
