Im not going  far
3of4    fatal crashes occur  within25  miles of
home.
Belts are uncomfortable
We design our  safety belts to  enhance
comfort. If you  are uncomfortable -  try
different positions for  the safety belt  upper
anchorage and seatback  which should be  as
upright as possible;  this can improve  comfort.

Belts wrinkle my  clothes”     Possibly, but a  serious crash can do  much
more than wrinkle  your clothes, particularly  if
you are unbelted.
The people Im  with dont     Set the example, teen  deaths occur 4  times
wear belts
more often in  vehicles with TWO  or MORE
people. Children and  younger brothers/sisters
imitate behavior they  see.
I have an  air bag
Air bags offer  greater protection when  used
with safety belts.  Frontal airbags are  not
designed to inflate  in rear and  side crashes or
rollovers.

belts help prevent  ejection, WE CANTPICK
