  • New Law Alert!! Everyone in the car must be buckled up — even in the back seat. Fines from $25 to $250 will be issued.
  • Over 5,000 16-19 year olds are killed in car crashes each year. Over half of them weren't wearing seat belts.
  • Unbuckled back seat passengers can become human missiles during a car crash, injuring themselves as well as others.
  • Don't be a crash test dummy. Always buckle up.
  • Don't risk getting a ticket. Everyone riding in the vehicle must wear a seat belt.
