Seat belts began to be mandated in various countries during the 1960s and 1970s. In the United States, the first state to require seat belts was New York in 1984. Other states followed suit, and by the early 1990s, most states had enacted laws requiring seat belt use. Today, seat belt laws vary by state, but they generally promote the use of seat belts for safety in vehicles.
