Abstract

The early development of seat belts in Europe is reviewed to show how they evolved from relatively primitive accessories to an integral part of the modern car's design. Legal requirements on fitting and use of seat belts are summarised briefly, and actual belt usage rates in the traffic stream and in collision are discussed.
