In most states and in all Canadian provinces, the law
says
to wear safety belts. Here’s why:
They
work.
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
30
years of safety belts in vehicles,
the facts are clear. In most crashes buckling up
does matter
...
a
lot!
Why Safety Belts Work
When you ride
in
or on anything, you go as fast as
it goes.
Take the simplest vehicle. Suppose it’s just a seat
on wheels.
