Should rear passengers fasten seat belts on highways?
1 Answers
Seat belts must be fastened if available, regardless of whether in the front or rear seats. Below is relevant information about seat belts: 1. Seat belts function to restrain movement and provide cushioning, absorbing impact energy and dissipating inertial forces to prevent or reduce the severity of injuries to drivers and passengers. Automotive accident investigations show that in frontal collisions, wearing a seat belt can reduce fatalities by 57%, by 44% in side collisions, and by 80% in rollovers. 2. Seat belts are safety devices used in equipment, such as aircraft or during high-altitude work and performances, to ensure safety. The main materials are polyester, polypropylene, and nylon. Seat belts are not just webbing; besides the webbing, they also consist of other assembled components. Seat belts have become a primary consideration for drivers and passengers and are one of the most important features in vehicles.
