Motor Vehicle Accidents

In every motor vehicle accident (MVA), there are actually two collisions. The first is the impact of the vehicle. The second is the "human collision." If a car travelling 40 MPH collides with a stationary object, the human collision will take place at the same velocity.

This is why unbelted occupants are so much more seriously injured than belted occupants. Imagine what it feels like to bang your chest against a steering wheel, or your head against a windshield --at 40 MPH!

While that might not seem pleasant, ejection from a vehicle is even worse. The fact is that three-quarters of occupants who are ejected from passenger cars are killed.

The best way to limit the human collision, and protect against ejection, is with a seatbelt. For the year 1995, only 2% of restrained passenger car occupants were ejected, compared to 25% of unrestrained occupants. Research has shown that lap/shoulder belts, when used properly, reduce the risk of fatal injury to front seat passenger car occupants by 45% and the risk of moderate-critical injury by 50%.

The proper use of seat belts is estimated to save 9,500 lives each year. Put simply: Seat Belts Work. They are the "cure" to the "disease."
