Reasons given...
Consider...
⬙
I was in a hurry
⬙
Prime time for an accident.
BeltMinder
娂
reminds us to take a few seconds to buckle up.
⬙
Seat belts don’t
work
⬙
Safety belts,
when used properly,
reduce risk of
death
to front seat occupants by
45% in cars,
and by
60% in light trucks.
⬙
Traffic is light
⬙
Nearly 1 of 2 deaths occur in single-vehicle
crashes,
many when no other vehicles are around.
⬙
Belts wrinkle my
clothes
⬙
Possibly, but a serious crash can do much more
than wrinkle your clothes, particularly if you are
unbelted.
⬙
The people I’m
with don’t wear
belts
⬙
Set the example, teen deaths occur 4 times more
often in vehicles with TWO or MORE people.
Children and younger brothers/sisters imitate
behavior they see.
⬙
I have an airbag
⬙
Airbags offer greater protection when used with
safety belts. Frontal airbags are not designed to
inflate in rear and side crashes or rollovers.
⬙
I’d rather be
thrown clear
⬙
Not a good idea.
People
who are
ejected are 40
times more likely to DIE.
Safety belts help
prevent ejection, WE CAN’T
⬙
PICK OUR CRASH
⬙
.
Do not sit on top of a buckled safety belt to avoid the
BeltMinder
娂
chime. Sitting on the safety belt will increase the
risk of injury in an accident. To disable (one-time) or deactivate the
BeltMinder
娂
feature please follow the directions stated below.
One time disable
If at any time the driver/front passenger quickly buckles then unbuckles
the BeltMinder
娂
feature for that seating position, the BeltMinder
娂
is
disabled for the current ignition cycle. The BeltMinder
娂
feature will
re-enable during the same ignition cycle if the occupant buckles and
remains buckled for approximately 30 seconds. Confirmation is not given
for the one time disable.
Deactivating/activating the BeltMinder
姟
feature
The driver and front passenger BeltMinder
娂
are
deactivated/activated independently. When deactivating/activating
one seating position, do not buckle the other position as this will
terminate the process.
