    Primary seat belt laws allow law enforcement officers to ticket a driver or passenger for not wearing a seat belt, without any other traffic offense taking place. Secondary seat belt laws state that law enforcement officers may issue a ticket for not wearing a seat belt only when there is another citable traffic infraction. Montana is an example of a state who uses the set of Secondary seat belt laws, and although it has been proven somewhat useful, 20.7% of Montana’s population, which is approximately 196,000 people, are still not buckling up (Primary Seatbelt Law Factsheet). In 2011 alone, there was a reported 172 vehicle occupant deaths. Out of those 172 deaths, 127 people were not wearing seatbelts (Montana Living). That is a large statistical number and often gets written off as just that, a statistic. But most Montana towns are small, with a wholesome community-feel based environment. That is 127 individual deaths which affect whole communities. If there can be at least one person saved from wearing a seatbelt, it would be beneficial to a magnitude of people. Some people however still dare to think “I don’t need to wear a seatbelt,” or “that would never happen to me.” There are many myths about seatbelt use, and I am going to help relieve some of those…

    Seatbelts save lives; by wearing them we could have lower insurance premiums, have lower fatality rates in automobile accidents, and keep the cost of hospital care a little more under control. Did you know that the cost of hospital care for unbelted drivers is 50% higher than the cost for a belted driver? Studies by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration also show that most unbelted drivers tend to drive more careless and in most cases are uninsured. It’s not fair someone to drive with care, and have to pay an arm and a leg to insure their vehicle because of few reckless drivers. There are two types of seatbelt laws, primary and secondary. Primary allows an officer to issue a citation for a first offense violation and secondary gets you a warning for the first violation and then you will receive citations if you continue to break the law.…

    Every year thousands of Americans, if not hundreds of thousands, are seriously injured or killed due to the lack of seat belt usage. Some states in the United States have a law that requires only the driver to wear a seat belt, and some require only passengers of a certain age to wear one. Wearing a seat belt should not be considered just an age issue, it should be considered important for all people inside a vehicle to wear one. The states that are the smartest are definitely the ones that require everyone to wear one, regardless of their age or their placement inside the vehicle. The United States as a whole, not just states individually, should pass a law mandating all people inside a motor vehicle to wear a seatbelt.…
