Dad, in a hurry to get home before dark so he could go for a run, had forgotten to wear his safety belt- a mistake 75% of the US population make every day. The big question is why.

There have been many myths about safety belts ever since their first appearance in cars some forty years ago. The following are three of the most common.

Myth Number One: It’s best to be “thrown clear” of a serious accident.

Studies show that chances of dying after a car accident are twenty-five times greater in cases where people are “thrown clear".

Myth Number Two: Safety belts “trap” people
