Product Information

Successive Governments proposed, but failed to deliver, further seat belt legislation throughout the 1970s and it wasn’t until 31 January 1983 – 15 years later – that a law requiring all drivers and front seat passengers to wear their seatbelts came into force. In the European Union, seat belt reminders are mandatory in all new passenger cars for driver seat, since 2014 when EC Regulation 661/2009 [91] made UN Regulation 16 applicable. A person involved in a car accident who was not using a seat belt may be liable for damages far greater than if they had been using a seat belt. However, when in court, most states protect motorists from having their damages reduced in a lawsuit due to the non-use of a seat belt, even if they were acting in violation of the law by not wearing the seat belt. Currently, damages may be reduced for the non-use of a seat belt in 16 states: Alaska, Arizona, California, Colorado, Florida (See F.S.A. 316.614(10)), Iowa, Michigan, Missouri, Nebraska, New Jersey, New York, North Dakota, Ohio, Oregon, West Virginia, and Wisconsin.

However, after introduction of seat belt laws in many European and American countries, safety agencies did not validate the compensation theory:Some systems also pre-emptively tighten the belt during fast accelerations and strong decelerations, even if no crash has happened. This has the advantage that it may help prevent the driver from sliding out of position during violent evasive maneuvers, which could cause loss of control of the vehicle. These pre-emptive safety systems may prevent some collisions from happening, as well as reduce injuries in the event an actual collision occurs. [46] Pre-emptive systems generally use electric pretensioners which can operate repeatedly and for a sustained period, rather than pyrotechnic pretensioners, which can only operate a single time. In 2004, The European New Car Assessment Program ( Euro NCAP), started testing seat belts and whiplash safety on all test cars at the Thatcham Research Centre with crash test dummies.

Seatbelts are not only a legal requirement, they are the first and best line of preventative defence against death and serious injury in road traffic collisions.

Enhanced Safety: When your seatbelt is on, you cannot be dragged out of the vehicle, preventing unwanted mishaps during intense gameplay moments. People are less likely to use seat belts on short or familiar journeys – putting them at serious risk of injury in a crash.

A three-point belt is a Y-shaped arrangement, similar to the separate lap and sash belts, but unified. Like the separate lap-and-sash belt, in a collision, the three-point belt spreads out the energy of the moving body over the chest, pelvis, and shoulders. Volvo introduced the first production three-point belt in 1959. [31] The first car with a three-point belt was a Volvo PV 544 that was delivered to a dealer in Kristianstad on August 13, 1959. However, the first car model to have the three-point seat belt as a standard item was the 1959 Volvo 122, first outfitted with a two-point belt at initial delivery in 1958, replaced with the three-point seat belt the following year. [32] The three-point belt was developed by Nils Bohlin who had earlier also worked on ejection seats at Saab. [33] Volvo then made the new seat belt design patent open in the interest of safety and made it available to other car manufacturers for free.
