Rt. 31, Crystal Lake (Just N. of ITS) 815-459-8111 / Safety Belts Safety experts agree that the use of seat belts dramatically reduces the risk of injury or death. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Ad­ ministration, about 50 percent of all people who die in passenger cars, light trucks or vans-35,000 could have been saved if they had been wearing safety belts. . Safety belts help occupants in five ways:l. There is the "ride down" benefit, in which the belt begins to stop the wearer as the car is stopping. 2. The belt keeps the head and face of the wearer from striking such objects as Skill Olympics. Fourteen McHenry students were Invited to represent McHenry high's vocational program in competition with 1,400 outstanding Illinois VICA members.

June or dashboard. 3. The belt spreads the stop­ ping force widely across the body. 4. Belts prevent vehicle oc­ cupants from colliding with each other. 5. Belts help the driver maintain vehicle control, thus d e c r e a s i n g t h e possibility of a second collision^ It's important to remember that wearing a belt gives you twice as good a chance of living through a crash as if you wore no belt at all. Using a lap-shoulder belt combination makes your chances of survival three to four times better than they are if you drive beltless. 27 to July 2 to represent Illinois VICA in national competition.
