Not every seat belt is a safety belt.
The gain in auto seat belts in the past few years has been so phenomenal that there is no doubt whatever that they are here to stay.
There is an abundance .of scientific evidence that a reliable seat belt, installed properly/and used constantly can save lives and reduce injuries in an accident.
However, be on your guard: make certain the seat belts you buy are reliable. In this booming market some products are being rushed into production which differ widely in quality as well as price. The price tag alone is far from your best assurance.
The Robert W. Hunt Company, an independent testing laboratory which tests seat belts for the American Seat Belt Council, has found many belts on the market do not meet the minimum standards set by the Society of Automotive Engineers.
Some belts have failed webbing strength tests; some buckles latch falsely or fly apart under stress; some belts are inconsistent—sometimes meeting standards, sometimes not. Despite the efforts of many states to require seat belt manufacturers to submit proof that their belts meet Standards, there continues to be evidence of poor quality control in the manufacture of some seat belts.
