The DMV’s new commercial might come across as comedy, but the topic is serious. Seatbelts save lives. 

The “annoying sound” that happens in most new cars when one of the front seat occupants doesn’t put on their seatbelt, is actually saving lives!

If you are riding in the front seat and you are wearing your seatbelt, you lessen the chance of dying in an accident by 45%. Passengers in the backseat have a 60% better chance of making it through a crash, when wearing their seatbelts.

In fact, when the backseat passengers are not wearing seatbelts- they turn into projectiles during a crash- which in turn increases the fatality rate for drivers during a frontal impact crash.

There is no excuse to not wear your seatbelt. They save lives!
