Abstract

The methods and analyses used in the study of the effects of compulsory seat belt wearing law in Victoria are described and results on wearing rates, driver attitudes, and the effect of seat belt in accidents, are presented. Considerable savings in casualties have accrued from 1971 to the present time. Current wearing rates are around 90% and probably 14.000 casualties have been saved over four years, 1971- 1974.
