Your vehicle has a light
that comes on as a
reminder to buckle up. See

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!

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.
