Best Answer

In the old days seatbelts were optional so most people never wore them. Unfortunately a lot of people died in car accidents. Most people who died in car accidents didn't wear their seatbelts. In the late 80's the government past the law that children had to wear their seatbelts but adults didn't have to. A few months or a few years later they past a law that adults had to wear their seatbelts. Seatbelts save lives but there's still a chance that you can die in a car crash anyway but it reduces your chances by 80%.
