Newton's first law of motion states that any object at rest will stay at rest and any object in motion will remain in motion, unless the object is acted on by another force.

Without a seatbelt, the force acting on a person in an accident would be the dashboard or steering wheel (which would cause serious injuries).

With a seatbelt, the force acting on a person would be the seatbelt, which will protect the driver from injuries.
