Enforcement action nets 16 seat belt violations, 1 arrest

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) reports that seat belts are supposed to save lives and mitigate injury during traffic accidents by limiting a person's contact with the car's interior, preventing ejection from the vehicle, reducing deceleration force and concentrating crash forces to the strongest parts of a person's body. The 2006 National Occupant Protection Use Survey (NOPUS) found that 45 percent of traffic fatalities occurred among those who did use seat belts. While seat belt use has unquestionably reduced traffic fatalities and injuries, there are problems with their design and use that can result in injury and death.
