Seatbelts and child restraints
In this section you can find information about correctly wearing seatbelts and choosing the right child restraint. Children need different restraints as they grow.
Each year around 20 per cent of all car occupants killed in road crashes were not wearing a restraint. Hundreds of other people are disabled for life in crashes where they were not wearing a seat belt.
