It can also save you a $53 fine. This week's article examines several common myths associat- ed with seat belt use and the actual facts related to these myths. By Dave Chmara Many people think they can protect themselves in a collision but even in a low speed crash, an unbelted person hits the inside of the car with a force of several thousand pounds. In a collision, front seat unbelted occupants can be thrown against the driver or through th windshield and back seat passen- gers can be tossed forward, strik- ing or crushing those in the front seat. It's a fact that seat belts keep the driver behind the wheel and in control of the car. Even pregnant women should always wear the lap and shoulder belt when riding in the car. It's important that the belt be worn properly. - but at any rate; we must celebrate the big "30" Happy Birthday ILLS The Annual Meeting of the NORTH OF SUPERIOR PROGRAMS Scheduled to be held in Nipigon, October 12, 1989 Photo by Dave Chmara Set the lap belt low so it pulls downward on the pelvic bones, not against the abdomen.

If you aren't wearing your safety belt you could be - thrown through the wind- shield - thrown into trecs, rocks or other cars - scraped along the ground or' pavement - run over by your own or another car. Myth: The changes of being in an accident are slim. Fact: Everyone can expect to. be in a crash once every 10 years. For one out of 20 people it will be a scrious crash. For one out of every 60 children born today it will be fatal. Myth: If an individual chooses not to wear asafety belt that individual is only endan- gering his or her own safety. Fact: If unbelted during a crash the vehicle occupant may be thrown into other adults or children.
