Is it correct for the driver of a private car to use a cushion on his seat?

It shall be strictly forbidden for the driver of any type of vehicle to use a non-approved cushion when driving.

This is because it may produce a submarine effect on the driver, which may cause his body not to be adequately restrained in the event of an accident, sliding the body under the lap belt and limiting the effectiveness of the seat belt.
