Abstract

Seat belts usage rates were compared to the injury and fatality rates in Saskatchewan. Although total accidents and miles driven per year have increased, injury and fatality rates have decreased since the passing of the mandatory seatbelt law. This analyses indicates the potential for further reductions in injuries and fatalities if usage rates can be increased.
