Studies show that chances of dying after a car accident are twenty-five times greater in cases where people are "thrown clear."Myth Number Two: Safety belts "trap" people in cars that are burning or sinking in water.Truth: Sorry again. but studies show that people knocked unconscious(昏迷) due to not wearing safety belts have a greater chance of dying in these accidents People wearing safety belts are usually protected to the point of having a clear head to free themselves from such dangerous situations, not to be trapped in them.Myth Number Three Safety belts aren't needed at speeds of less than 30 miles per hourTruth: When two cars traveling at 30 mpb hit each other.
