More than any other group, teens were not wearing safety belts in automobile crashes that resulted in fatalities. You're going to have to stay on top of your teenager about it. There's something about safety belts and young drivers that doesn't click. Sometimes it will feel like you are talking to a brick wall. But don't stop being a pest about wearing safety belts.
Seatbelts help save lives.
Check for signs that your teenager is wearing his or her seat belts. When your teenager is about to drive away , look out your window to see if he or she automatically straps in. When your teenager gets in the automobile with you , observe if he or she automatically straps in without you prompting him or her. When you hear your teenager returning home in his or her automobile, greet your teenager. Watch to see if he or she is strapped in.
