BUCKLE UP

Did you know...?

• Motor vehicle crashes are a leading cause of death among those ages 1 through 54 in the United States, and the leading cause of death among teens.
• The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) reports that over 12,000 people are saved every year because they were wearing a seatbelt.
• Seat belts reduce serious crash-related injuries and deaths by about half.
• Air bags provide added protection but are not a substitute for seat belts. Air bags in addition to seat belts provide the greatest protection for adults.

Remember to use a seat belt on every trip, no matter how short. And make sure all of your passengers do as well, even those in the back seat.
