The seatbelt is the most important part of a car; it's what keeps you safe. It's what restraints you from flying forward if you end up in an accident. But why is it that important? Take a look at all of the benefits seatbelts offer us:
- Prevent you from being ejected from the seat in accidents (like mentioned above).
- You will be fined if you are not wearing a seatbelt. You have to accept the laws formed for transportation, and when travelling by car, you have to wear your seatbelt. If a police officer catches you or a member of your car riding without their seatbelt fastened, they will ask you to pull over and you will be fined at fee of $167. After all, not wearing a seatbelt is a violation.
- Seatbelts are safer than airbags. Seatbelts have saved more lives than airbags up to date. In addition, airbags can suffocate young children, or even adults. It's always better to use a seatbelt.
