The Safety of Seatbelts

Chantay Kinder

Why is it Important?

• They could very easily save your live.• You’ll feel safer.

• At least almost every person would agree that protecting lives with seatbelts is far more important than a broken tail light or anything else.

The Costs

• The cost to care for an unbelted car crash victim is 50% more than the costs than of a belted victim.

• Almost all of the crashes could have been prevented and plus most have of those people weren’t wearing a seatbelt.

• According to the National Highway Transportation Administration, lap shoulder belt systems reduce the risk of injuries or death.

• Failure to wear safety affects everyone through higher insurance premiums, higher medical costs, and higher taxes.

• The reasons why teens are more at a risk is because they often underestimate the dangers and are less likely to recognize problems of driving.
