Reasons given... Consider...
ЉI was in a hurryЉ
Prime time for an accident. Safety
Belt Warning Chime reminds us to
take a few seconds to buckle up.
ЉSeat belts don’t workЉ
Safety belts, when used properly,
reduce risk of death to front seat
occupants by 45% in cars, and by
60% in light trucks.
ЉTraffic is lightЉ
Nearly 1 of 2 deaths occur in
single-vehicle crashes, many when
no other vehicles are around.
ЉBelts wrinkle my clothesЉ
Possibly, but a serious crash can do
much more than wrinkle your clothes,
particularly if you are unbelted.
ЉThe people I’m with don’t
wear belts
Љ
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.
ЉI have an airbagЉ
Airbags offer greater protection when
used with safety belts. Frontal airbags
are not designed to inflate in rear and
side crashes or rollovers.
ЉI’d rather be thrown clearЉ
Not a good idea. People who are
ejected are 40 times more likely
to DIE. Safety belts help prevent
ejection, WE CAN’T
ЉPICK OUR
CRASH
Љ.
WARNING: Always wear the safety belt. Do not be tempted to
sit on top of the belt to fool police or to defeat the warning
system. The safety belt and safety belt warning system are
there to protect your life.
