Abstract

The Hispanic population in the United States has increased by nearly 60% since 1990. As this population continues to grow, the low safety belt use rate by Hispanics is emerging as a significant public health issue. This fact sheet provides information on the following: Hispanics are at risk; Safety belt use saves lives and dollars; Child safety seats/booster seats help protect children; Strong laws can make a difference; Differential enforcement; and Hispanic organizations show strong support for safety belt laws.
