The Air Bag and Seat Belt Safety Campaign ushered in a new era of air bag, car seat and seat belt safety. As a result of the campaign’s influence, 82 percent of adults today now wear seat belts compared to
61 percent 10 years ago, and more than 90 percent of children age 1 to
3 are now properly restrained, up from 60 percent in 1996. The rate of children dying aged 12 and under due to impact with air bags has declined 96 percent.
