reminder to
buckle up. (See “Safety Belt

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 bad19 hurt or
kiiled.
After more than
25
years of safety belts in vehicles, the
facts
are
clear. In most crashes buckling up does matter
...
a lot!
Take the simplest vehicle. Suppose it’s just a seat on
wheels.
