Always Wear Your Seatbelt! No Excuses!

Many of us would be surprised at the number of people who fail to wear their safety belts, and even some of us “good drivers” may be guilty from time to time of not wearing a seat belt, especially when making a quick trip to the store for example. However, the fact remains that wearing your seat belt is one of the most basic and important ways to protect yourself in the event of an accident, and it can be said that even the smallest of accidents can be tremendously serious for the driver and passengers if seat belts aren’t worn or worn properly.

Being the best driver in the world and knowing everything about defensive driving may still not be enough to prevent a crash from occurring, and indeed, being a good driver really does mean that you wear your seatbelt at all times, even on short trips to the store! For those that think that seatbelts aren’t so important, consider this: if a crash does occur, the seatbelt can help to prevent you from smashing into the steering wheel or windows, and depending on direction and force of the impact, not wearing a seatbelt could also lead to you being thrown from the car!

Always wear your seatbelt! There is absolutely excuse on this one; always wear your seatbelt and always make sure that your passengers are wearing theirs! Be sure to learn more about how you can keep yourself and others safe on the road today by enrolling in a driver safety course today!
