Abstract

This is a discussion of a paper entitled "Usage Patterns and Misuse Rates of Automatic Seat Belts by System Type", by Donald W. Reinfurt, Cheryl L. St.Cyr, and William W. Hunter of the Highway Safety Research Center (HSRC). See B 30663. The paper presented data in broad categories of vehicle manufacturer, model, and occupant age, gender, and race. Other categories that may correlate with belt use or misuse, such as vehicle cost and country of manufacture, were not identified as separate categories.
