2015 JEEP COMPASS tail

Failure to use the driver and passenger seat belts pro-
vided is a major cause of severe or fatal injury. In fact,
the U.S. government notes that the universal use of
existing seat belts could cut the highway death toll by
10,000 or more each year and could reduce disabling
injuries by two million annually. In a rollover crash, an
unbelted person is significantly more likely to die than a
person wearing a seat belt. Always buckle up.
