Properly implemented airbags don't save lives; they prevent and reduce the severity of injuries. Airbags calibrated to save lives actually save very few of them, and at great cost of increased injury and death risk to far greater numbers of people. > No question that a lap/shoulder belt that is actually buckled and > adjusted does the first part of the job.

Those systems are dead last (literally) at the bottom of the lifesaving/injury-preventing ranked list of all front occupant restraint systems used in the last three decades. NHTSA deliberately traded effectiveness for presence. That is: They mandated less-effective safety equipment so that even those too foolish to use manual seatbelts would have some nominal protection -- AT THE GREAT EXPENSE of significantly reduced protection for those smart enough to use manual belts. |
