Essay / Research Paper Abstract
This 10 page paper takes an objective look at the statistics that result from the increased use of seatbelts. Using a wide range of data from a number of countries the statistical analysis indicated increased seatbelt usage also increases the accident rates, despite the increased protection it provides. Data included looks at accidents to drivers, passengers, pedestrians and other road users. The bibliography cites 9 sources.

which health is protected ranges from warning on tobacco to legislation on seatbelt wearing to protect the lives of car drivers and passengers. If we wish to consider these
issues, some may be more straightforward than others, For example, if we consider the subject of seatbelts the there are statistics that indicate an increase in the use of seatbelts
reduces accidents and deaths. However, there are many other influences on the way that injuries are caused by cars, and the influence the seatbelts will have on this outcome. The
statistical reduction of injuries may also be seen as giving a false indication of increased safety, and when we look at the wearing of seatbelts by drivers we also need
to consider other individuals, such as passengers and pedestrians. If we look at the way that statistics reflect on all of these individual we may find there are some interesting
correlations. However, apparent correlations may occur, but they do not always indicate a causation. They may both be influenced by external factors that give a false indication. Therefore, when we
look at any statistical analysis, we need to use the traditional measures, such as percentage increases or decreases as well as changes in statistics over time, yet these alone are
not sufficient, we also need to carry out statistical analysis in order to prove or disprove if there is a relationship between the different data sets. Therefore, in this paper
we will undertake both in order to look at the overall impact that the wearing of seatbelts has on accident statistics. If we look at the statistics in the
US there are a large number of deaths caused by car accidents. These statistics are collected by the U S Department of Transportation Fatal Accident Reporting System (FARS). These are
