Seat belt use on interstate highways.

J K Wells, A F Williams and A K Lund

Insurance Institute for Highway Safety, Arlington, VA 22201.

More than 5,000 miles of limited-access highways in the eastern United States and Canada were traveled to observe seat belt use. Overall belt use was 58 percent in the United States and 79 percent in Canada. The data indicate that belt use in the United States follows a different pattern on interstate highways than on other streets and roads, with relatively high belt use rates (over 50 percent) appearing to be somewhat independent of belt use law provisions.
