Reasons given...
Consider...
Belts wrinkle my clothes" Possibly, but a serious crash can do
much more than wrinkle your
clothes, particularly if you are
unbelted.
The people I'm with don't wear
belts"
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.
I have an air bag" Air bags offer greater protection
when used with safety belts.
Frontal airbags are not designed to
inflate in rear and side crashes or
rollovers.
I'd rather be thrown clear" Not a good idea, people who are
ejected are 40 times more
likely to DIE. Safety belts help
prevent ejection. WE CAN'T PICK
OUR CRASH".
