Seatbelts
To buckle up can mean the difference between life and death.
According to reports, buckling up increases a driver's and a
passenger's odds of surviving a catastrophic car collision by
double. If more people opted to use a seat belt, 7000 lives would
be saved annually inside the EU alone. With the invention of the three-point seat belt we are all
acquainted with today, the world got significantly safer 60
years ago. More than a million lives are thought to have been
saved by this invention, which is still regarded as the greatest
significant advancement in traffic safety in history.

The contemporary three-point seat belt was created in 1959 by
Volvo engineer Nils Bohlin. Despite the fact that the design was
protected by a patent, the business decided to keep the patent
open, making it freely usable by all automakers. In order to
make sure that everyone, regardless of whether they drove a
Volvo or not, could be safer in traffic, this very unusual choice
was made for the safety of general public.
Back in the day, many cars weren't even equipped with a
typical two-point seatbelt, and even if they were, it was obvious
that the overall setup, which just crossed the lap, was far from
ideal. In some instances, it really resulted in severe internal
injuries. Because it did nothing more than keep you where you
were.
