    Extractions: It is a tragic and chilling fact: the U.S. military loses the equivalent of a battalion of troops each year - not in combat, but in automobile accidents, transportation safety officials said recently. Jeffrey W. Runge, administrator for the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, said that this fact should "resonate with every American." "The nation cannot afford to lose a battalion of our finest young people at this critical time in our nation's history when we need them the most," Runge said. "With the nation's attention riveted on homeland security like never before, young service men and women who put their lives on the line every day to protect our country and to protect our way of life must protect themselves by wearing their safety belt," he added. Runge joined Marine Corps' Assistant Commandant Gen. William Nyland and a host of law enforcement and transportation officials to kick off the Department of Defense's plan to increase seatbelt use among military members. "Operation ABC Mobilization/Click It or Ticket" is a partnership with the armed forces to step up awareness and enforcement of seatbelt laws on military installations around the country.

Launching the campaign, transport minister Tony McNulty said: "Too many drivers and passengers still fail to wear a seatbelt. "This campaign continues our thought-provoking publicity to try and convince them of the need to belt up - even on short trips. "Wearing a seatbelt can save your life. I hope our new campaign will be a powerful reminder to those who seem to forget."

    Extractions: The Dover Police Department aggressively enforces the State of Delaware child restraint and seatbelt laws: Child Restraints Delaware's child restraint law requires all children under four years of age to be secured in a child restraint system that meets the federal motor vehicle safety standards. *Note The 4 years or 40 lbs. law is no longer in effect. All children under the age of 4 must be in a child restraint! This is a primary offense , and a driver can be stopped and fined for this violation by itself. Seat Belts The current seat belt law states that all front seat occupants must wear a properly adjusted and fastened seat belt, which meets the applicable federal motor vehicle safety standards. Violation of this law is a secondary offense, meaning a motorist must be stopped for some other violation first. However, a 40% assessment is added to the primary offense fine for the seatbelt violation. The law also states that all children between the ages of 4-16 must wear a seatbelt at all times while in a motor vehicle operated on the roadways, streets, or highways of this state. This is a

Auto Insurance Resources Seatbelt Safety Seatbelt Safety The modern three-point automotive seat belt was the brainchild of Swedish aircraft engineer Nils Ivar Bohlin, who, ironically, spent the early years of his career designing aircraft ejector seats. Nevertheless, Bohlin's invention - a three-point combination lap and diagonal belt positioned across the pelvis and rib cage - has saved thousands of lives since its introduction in 1959. Seat belts today, of course, are an accepted part of routine vehicle operation for millions of drivers and passengers. Unfortunately, millions of other vehicle occupants continue to put their lives at risk by ignoring these critical restraint systems. Seat belts are a marvel of complexity…and simplicity. They combine Bohlin's strong three-point harness with a relatively simple pendulum and ratchet mechanism that locks the belt in sudden-stop situations. This design helps improve the comfort of belt wearers, as the belt is not locked in position under normal operation.

I should let you know that my father has a bit might save our lives, but it is legal to have an abortion which destroys the life of (translated: murders) unborn babies. Note the comment of the federal judge in this court decision: I must have missed the part in the constitution where it states that infanticide is a right. This must be the upgraded Constitution 2.0 . Not to mention that this is pretty much a declaration of independence on the part of the Judicial to the Legislative Branch of the government. However, let us not overlook a terrible inconsistency: a woman has the right to choose to murder a child (which has been virtually admitted by the abortion doctors during the trial) but we have no right to choose not to strap a piece of nylon cloth over our bodies for safety! Think about it! The use of a safety belt has benefit almost exclusively for the individual wearing it. Yet, we are forced to wear it by law enforcement. On the other hand, abortion destroys innocent lives at the whim of an individual - but it is perfectly legal! This entry was posted by Scott on Tuesday, June 1st, 2004 at 1:56 pm and is filed under

Current NHTSA surveys indicate that African Americans currently use safety belts 77% of the time, an eight percent increase since 2000 according to a recent 2003 NHTSA survey. This large increase in seatbelt use can in part be attributed to the strong efforts of the Strap It On campaign that reached thousands of African Americans every day and had a direct impact on seatbelt safety choices and actions.

When your vehicle suddenly stops due to a collision, your body still tries to move forward. If you are not wearing a seatbelt, your body will move forward until you collide with something that is not likely to be soft.

    Extractions: Houston family sues Chrysler over faulty seatbelts - March 13, 2003 Houston – A Houston-area family has settled its lawsuit against DaimlerChrysler in the deaths of two women ejected from a minivan in a crash that occurred in 2002 as the family returned home from vacation. Martin Mendoza filed the suit against the automaker March 13, 2003 , claiming faulty seat belts were to blame for the deaths of his wife and sister-in-law. The suit was settled for an undisclosed sum. In the vehicle were Martin Mendoza, 37, the driver, his wife, Denise, 34, and their children Daniel, 15, and Amy, 8; also Martin's brother, Jose, 40, his wife, Maria, 38, and their son, Hector, 16. All had their seat belts buckled. However, all the belts except that of Jose, in the front passenger seat, unlatched. Martin was hurled into the windshield and fell between the two front seats. Denise and Maria, who were in the middle captain's chairs, and all three children, who were riding in the rear seat, were ejected from the vehicle. Denise died instantly. Maria was fatally injured, and died on January 8, 2003. All three children were seriously injured. Amy received numerous fractures. Hector remains paralyzed.

    Extractions: Every year hundreds of children are hurt or killed because they do not put on a seat belt or they were not strapped in properly. The law provides a penalty for not restraining children under six years of age or under sixty pounds using a child passenger restraint system that meets applicable federal motor vehicle safety standards. (Vehicle Code Section 27360) You can protect yourself, your family and your friends by following these safety tips: Infants (Under 20 pounds / Less than 1 year old) Use a Rear-Facing Infant Seat. Infant seats are designed for babies from birth until at least 20 pounds and one year of age. The child seat must be in the back seat of the vehicle. NEVER place an infant in a rear-facing child safety seat in the front seat of a vehicle with a passenger-side air bag. The force of the deploying air bag will hit the seat (because of its close proximity to the dashboard) and can seriously injure or kill an infant. REMEMBER: All infant seats must be rear-facing, so the only safe place to install it is in the back seat. Never place infant car seats in the front of a car with air bags. In a crash, the air bag can hurt or kill a baby.

    Extractions: Did you know that there is one single thing you can do each and every time you ride in an automobile that will increase your chances of arriving safely by more than 90 percent? It's buckling up! That's right; simply put, seatbelts save lives. In 1999, motor vehicle occupant restraints saved the lives of an estimated 11,197 people over the age of 4, making them the most effective safety device in vehicles today. Sadly, records show that in 1999, nearly 19,000 unrestrained drivers and passengers died in traffic crashes and more than 3,000 of them were children. Motor vehicle crashes are the leading cause of death for African-American children through age 14 and crashes are the second leading cause of death for African Americans aged 15-24. These statistics are staggering, and that is why Buckle Up America! began its safety campaign promoting seatbelt use. You can help spread the word about seatbelt safety during the week of May 19-26, which is National Buckle Up America! Week. No matter what State you live in, it's a great time to help others understand why everyone should wear a seatbelt on every trip. Buckle Up America! is a partnership between businesses, police officers, public officials, and parents. We can all be affected when someone in the car is riding unbuckled so everyone must be a part of the solution. Set An Example It is your job to be sure that everyone who is riding in an automobile is wearing a seatbelt. Because children model adult behavior, adults who don't buckle up are sending children the message that it is okay not to wear a seatbelt. So remember, every time you are riding in an automobile with children, you can set an example by buckling up.
