Practice question

If your vehicle is hit from the side, where will your body be thrown?

  1. Toward the driver's side door
  2. Toward the side that is hit
  3. Under the steering wheel
  4. Against the passenger door

Answer: A — Toward the driver's side door

When a vehicle is hit from the side, your body will be thrown toward the driver's side door due to the impact force. This is because the force of the collision pushes the vehicle towards the opposite side of where impact occurs, causing any occupants to move in that direction. It is important to wear a seatbelt to help prevent serious injury in such situations.
