BDC2401: WE <3 RESTRAINTS

Horsepowers are cool and all, but how about your vehicle's restraint system?! Seatbelts and airbags work as a team to prevent occupant ejection and reduce the risk of injury or death in a crash. As the vehicle structure absorbs energy while maintaining integrity of the occupant compartment, the seatbelt holds the occupant in place to properly interact with the airbags, which decelerate the body in a controlled manner. While an estimated 50,457 lives have been saved by frontal airbags between 1987-2017 (NHTSA), they are still explosive devices that can cause injury if not used properly. Seatbelts and airbags are part of a vehicle's restraint system - they're meant to work together.

Buckling up in the front seat of a passenger car can reduce your risk of fatal injury by 45% (Kahane, 2015). Always buckle up, in any seat you're riding in! Nothing's sexier than arriving alive.

This drop is a love letter to the devices that keep millions of drivers safe every day.
