An amendment is an addition to the constitution. There is no federal amendment dealing with seat belts. To the best of my knowledge, this is not addressed by any state constitution either.
Seat belts and other traffic laws are covered by state statutes. Without knowing your state, I couldn't tell you which statute allows you to receive a fine for not wearing one.
According to statistics about 63% of people killed in accidents are not wearing seatbelts.
I have seen many people die from not wearing their seatbelts. I do not know the percentage though, but people do die from not wearing their seatbelts. I was driving home one night, and I witnissed a double collision car accident. Someone flew out of their window while the car was flipping and hit the highway. There were 3 other people in the same car as the man who flew out. He was the only one who wasn't wearing his seatbelt. The other 3 people climbed out of the car with minor injuries. The one who wasn't wearing his seatbelt died later that night. So to answer your question, yes. People die from not wearing their seatbelts almost everyday.
Many people don't wear seat belts because they think it is a personal choice. Seat belts do protect lives, and wearing one can save you hundreds of dollars.
TRUTHFULLY it sometimes depends on the car accident he or she is in minor car accidents can be resisted with wearing a seat belt major collisions can cause a person to get hurt because of the seat belt resits
i dont know but everyone should wear a seatbelt even if you are just driving down the rode
to influence people to buckle their seatbelts
the seat belt its self could possibly injure the person wearing it
Prior to the 17th Amendment, senators of the U.S Senate were appointed by the state's governor. The 17th Amendment requires that senators be elected by the citizens of the state they represent.
to influence people to buckle their seatbelts
"Equal Protection" under the 14th Amendment.
Save from the fact that it is the law in many places, people wear seatbelts because of the consequences associated to not wearing them. These include serious injuries and deaths resulting from accidents which are placed at a figure of 63% of all road-related deaths. In addition to this, not wearing a seatbelt attracts a fine. -Grace
