Light”
in the Index.)
In many states and 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
25 years of safety belts in vehicles, the facts are clear. In
most crashes buckling up does matter
... a lot!

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine Why Safety Belts Work
When you ride in or on anything, you go as fast as it goes.
For example, if the
bike is going 10 mph
(16 km/h), so is the
child.
When the bike hits the
block,
it stops. But the
child keeps going!
Take the simplest vehicle. Suppose it’s
just
a seat on wheels.

...
or the safety belts!
With safety belts,
you slow down as the vehicle does. You get more time to
stop. You stop over more distance, and your strongest bones take the forces.
That’s why safety belts make such good sense.
