CLOSING THE SEAT BELT
LOOPHOLE
PRINT OUT THE
PETITION
TO HELP US
Currently, New
Jersey's seat belt law neglects to require back seat
passengers to buckle up. Unbelted backseat passengers
can injure and even kill front seat and other passengers in
the car during a crash. Take a look at these videos if
you aren't sure and don't agree. Then print out the
petition.
