Car Crash! Inside view teenagers without seatbelt!
Remind your teenager to wear a seat belt
Teenagers get in more accidents than do any other age group, and are the least likely to wear safety belts, according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.
• Be a nag about wearing a seat belt and set a good example by wearing one yourself. Remind your teenager every time he leaves the house to buckle up.
• Sign the SADD Contract for Life with your teenager. It commits teenagers to wearing a seat belt and to never riding with a drunken driver. It commits parents to providing a safe ride home if their children are ever in an unsafe situation. You can find the Students Against Destructive Decisions Contract for Life at www.saddonline.com/contract.htm.
