Abstract

Passing a standard seat belt enforcement law is only a first step toward increasing seat belt use in a State or local jurisdiction. A high-profile enforcement effort is one of the best ways to encourage seat belt use. No other intervention - except for passage of the law itself - consistently shows equally powerful results. This guide is designed to help safety advocates derive maximum benefit from a standard enforcement law in their communities, towns, cities and states. The guide gives a basic implementation framework. It includes some general pointers about standard enforcement and marketing based on the experiences of states that have successfully implemented these laws. (Author/publisher)
