you
how

some

’,
..
Your vehicle has a light-that
comes on as ,a reminder to
buckle up. (See “Safety Belt
Reminder Light” in the
Index.)
In
many states and Canadian provinces, the law says to
wear safety belts. Here’s why:
They
work.
I
You
never know if you’ll be, in a crash.
If
you do have a
crash, you don’t know
if
it will be a bad one.
A few crashes are mild, and
some
crashes can be
so
serious that even buckled up a person wouldn’t survive.
But most crashes are in between. In many of them,
people who buckle up can survive and sometimes walk
away. Without belts they could have been badly hurt
or
killed.
After more than
25
years
of
safety belts in vehicles, the
facts are clear. In most crashes buckling up does matter
...
a lot!.

Here Are Questions Many People Ask
About Safety Belts
--
and the Answers
&:
Won’t
I
be trapped
in
the vehicle after an
accident if
I’m
wearing a safety belt?
A:
You
could
be,
--
whether you’re wearing a safety
1
belt or not. But you can unbuckle a safety belt,
even if you’re upside down. And your chance of
being conscious during and after
an
accident,
so
you
can
unbuckle and get out, is
much
greater if
you are belted.
&.’
Why don’t they just put in air bags
so
people
won’t have to wear safety belts?
A:
Air bags are in many vehicles today and will be in
more of them in the future. But they are
supplemental’systems only;
so
they work
with
,safety belts
--
not instead of them. Every
air
bag
system ever offered for sale has required the use of
safety belts. Even if you’re in a vehicle that has air
bags, you still have to buckle up to get the most
protection. That’s true not only in frontal collisions,
but especially in side and other collisions.

--
even one that isn’t your fault
--
you and
your passengers can be
hurt.
Being a good driver
,
I
doesn’t protect you from things beyond. your
control, such as bad drivers.
I
Most accidents occur within
25
miles
(40
km)
of
home. And the greatest number of serious injuries
and deaths occur .at speeds of less than
40
mph
(65
km/fi).
Safety belts are for everyone.
