“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.
Pr ime time for an accide nt.
BeltMinder reminds us to take a few
seconds to buckle up.
“I was in a hurry”
“Safety belts don’t work”
Sa fety be lt s, when used properly,
redu ce risk of de ath to front seat
occupants by 45% in cars, and by
60%
in light trucks.
“Traffic is light”
Nearly 1 of 2 de aths occu r in
sin gle -vehicle cr ashe s, many when
no other vehicles are around.
Possibly, but a serious crash can do
much more than wrinkle your clothes,
particularly if you are unbelted.
Set the example, teen deaths occur 4
times more often in vehicles with
TWO or MORE people. Children and
younger brothers/sisters imitate
behavior they see.
“Belts wrinkle my clothes”
“The people I’m with don’t
wear belts”
“I have an airbag”
Airbags offer greater protection when
used with safety belts. Frontal airbags
are not designed to inflate in rear and
side crashes or rollovers.
“I’d rather be thrown clear”
Not a good idea. Pe ople who are
eje ct ed are 40 time s mor e lik ely
to DIE . Safety belts help prevent
ejection, WE CAN’T “PICK OUR
CRASH”.
