If...

Then...

The driver’s safety belt is
buckled before the ignition
switch is turned to the ON
position...

The BeltMinder feature will not
activate.

The purpose of the BeltMinder is to remind occasional wearers to wear
safety belts all of the time.

The following are reasons most often given for not wearing safety belts:
(All statistics based on U.S. data)

Reasons given...

Consider...

“Crashes are rare events”

36700 crashes occur every day.

The

more we drive, the more we are
exposed to “rare” events, even for
good drivers.

1 in 4 of us will be

seriously injured in a crash during
our lifetime.

“I’m not going far”

3 of 4

fatal crashes occur within

miles of home.

“Belts are uncomfortable”

We design our safety belts to enhance
comfort. If you are uncomfortable -
try different positions for the safety
belt upper anchorage and seatback
which should be as upright as
possible; this can improve comfort.

“I was in a hurry”

Prime time for an accident.

BeltMinder 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.
