Aviation Seat Belts Essential to Safety. Seat Belt Safety is Important: There are some things in aviation that need fixing and things this country can do to help the troubled tourism industry in this country. Air travel is essential and I would first like to begin by giving you a true story. Mohammed Ali the fighter not a Taliban member was on a flight just getting ready to take-off. The flight attendant came and asked him to buckle his seatbelt. He replied, "Superman don't need no seatbelt!" She responded, "Superman don't need no plane." But seat belts are also important and even more so in cars. Certain vehicles are less safe simply due to geometry; http://www.parthe.net/_oilchangeguys/0000005c.htm . http://www.parthe.net/_cwg1202/0000006f.htm and Couple of interesting topics about auto safety in this article too. Seat Belts save lives, Americans are dying due to the lack of knowledge about safety belts, that is too bad and people should be aware that the risks are very real. Wear a Seat Belt. And secure your child also: National Highway Safety Administration http://www.nhtsa.dot.gov/cars/ This site provides information on child safety seats, the proper use of seat belts, air bags, antilock brakes, motorcycle helmet use, alcohol programs, state and community programs, current rulemakings, our research and development, and much more.
