Accidents Hurt, Safety Doesn’t

The leading cause of deaths in vehicular accidents is seat belt misuse or disuse. Wearing a seat belt properly means having both straps fit snugly around your body. This enables the transfer of the impact from the collision to parts of your body. Your hipbone and shoulder bone can then take the force. Thus, a properly worn seat belt greatly reduces the risk of head or body trauma.

Reports indicate that around 40,000 people die in car accidents each year with people under 35 yrs old as prime casualty. Because of this, Honda has further extended its commitment in protecting you and your passengers. As one of the leading innovators in the automobile industry, Honda has used the most advanced technologies in designing quality parts for its vehicles. You can rest assured that your Honda seat belt is made from only top-of-the-line materials. Not only do Honda seat belts promise safety, they are also engineered to give you comfort.

Unfortunately, there are still many myths regarding seatbelt use. It’s high time that you debunk them for your own safety as well as your passengers. One is that seatbelts may trap the vehicle occupants during collisions. However, Honda seat belts are specifically designed to hold you back from crashing against the steering wheel or the dashboard. And in case you need to get out of the car right away, Honda seat belts have a convenient easy release button. Another myth is that you don’t have to use seat belts anymore as air bags are already enough. While it is true that an air bag contributes to the prevention of injury, it should still be used with a seat belt. Air bags can only increase the effectiveness of seat belts by as much as 40%. They cannot protect the driver from pressure coming from the sides. Honda seat belts, on the other hand, can provide protection for you and your passengers from side impacts.
