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.

According to provincial law, the driver can be fined if passengers under the age of 16 are not buckled up. For passengers aged 16 and older, they are responsible for their own compliance with seatbelt laws. However, it's always best practice for drivers to remind all passengers to wear their seatbelts for safety.
The seatbelt light is on to indicate that one or more passengers in the vehicle are not wearing their seatbelts.
