Seat Belts
Why should seat belts be compulsory in Australia?
Why should seat belts be compulsory in Australia?
For safety reasons of course. There was a debate a while back as to why seat belt wear should not be enforced (increased risk of injuries - paralyzed neck, broken sternum). However when you look at the benefits wearing your seat belt actually increases the chances of surviving a crash and limits the risk of death. I know we are talking about Australia but here are statistics from the U.S. that prove the safety benefit of wearing a seat belt:
Approximately 35,000 people die in motor vehicle crashes each year. About 50 percent (17,000) of these people could be saved if they wore their safety belts.
In a 30 m.p.h. collision an unbelted 160 lb. Person can strike another passenger, crash through a windshield and/or slam into the vehicle's interior with a 4,800 lb. force.
Today over 25 countries around the world have some type of mandatory safety belt law. Results of these laws were measured; usage rate went from 20-25 percent before passage to 60-90 percent after passage.
A common cause of death and injury to children in motor vehicles is being crushed by adults who are not wearing safety belts. On out of four serious injuries to passengers is caused by occupants being thrown into each other.
