SAFETY TESTS & RATINGS

Q - What does the NHTSA ( National Highway Traffic Safety Administration) say about seatbelt adjuster devices?

A - "no evidence exists to show these devices are being misused to create belt slack nor is there proof that using the devices cause real-world problems"

Findings: NHTSA recognizes the potential benefits of a device which can increase seat belt use by providing increased comfort to users through additional belt adjustments.

Safety Information and Statistics Regarding Seat Belt Use.

Did you know that when a driver buckles up, children are buckled up 87 percent of the time. However, when a driver is unbuckled, children are restrained only 24 percent of the time.

If you are aware of a friend or loved one that refuses to wear their belt due to discomfort give them a Seatbelt Adjuster ™. You might save their life now that they have no excuse not to wear their seat belt.

There are 33% fewer fatalities when passengers wear both lap and shoulder belts. Keep your family safe by using seat belts. Seat belts are only effective if they are used properly.

Note: The Seatbelt Adjuster ™ is not a safety device. It has been designed to add comfort for drivers and passengers, motivating them to use their seatbelts properly. This increases their overall driving safety.
