Did you know seatbelts reduce the risk of death and serious injury by 50%?

Find a way to remember to buckle up as soon as you get in the car. Just buckle up, Idaho!

“Oh, it makes an incredible difference. Over the years I’ve been doing this, I’ve seen more and more people survive a pretty gnarly crash. A lot of that has to do with seatbelts.

A seatbelt will keep you in place and in your vehicle. Out here on these steep roads, it’s easy for someone to get thrown out of a car. So, if everyone is inside, they’re going to be safer. In all likelihood, they’re going to survive.”

— Carrie W: Advanced EMT, Boise County
