Safety Belts Save Lives. There is simply no disputing that wearing a
safety belt can save your life. That is why the Ohio State Highway Patrol is
encouraging all motorists to buckle-up. In 2011 nearly 65 percent of the people
killed on Ohio’s roadways were not wearing a safety belt. During the first
three months of 2012, safety belt citations by Ohio troopers are up 19 percent
over 2011 - and during this time unbelted traffic fatalities decreased by 16
percent.
