Seat belts became mandatory for front-seat passengers in Tennessee in 1986. The law was later expanded to require seat belts for all passengers in a vehicle. Compliance with this law has been aimed at improving road safety and reducing fatalities in accidents.
Seat belts became a standard feature in cars starting in the late 1950s. The first production car to offer seat belts as standard equipment was the 1959 Chevrolet. However, it wasn't until the 1960s and 1970s that seat belt laws were enacted in many countries, leading to wider adoption and use in vehicles. By the 1980s, seat belts had become mandatory in most new cars.
