  2. Should always be at a level even with the back of the

  3. Both A and C.

  4. Be worn at the abdomen for extra comfort.

The correct answer is: Both A and C.

Properly adjusted seat belt restraints are designed to prevent whiplash if hit from behind and should always be at a level even with the back of the seat. Option D is incorrect because seat belts should not be worn at the abdomen for comfort, but rather should be worn snugly across the hip bones for maximum effectiveness. Option A is incorrect because seat belt restraints are designed to prevent whiplash in the event of a car accident, not specifically if hit from behind. Option B is incorrect because seat belt restraints should be slightly above the hips, not even with the back of the seat. Having the seat belt at this level ensures that it will properly restrain the upper body in the event of a collision.
