🚗 Why do we have to wear seatbelts?

Wearing a seatbelt is like giving yourself a big hug in the car! 🚗💕 It keeps you safe and cozy if the car stops suddenly. Just like how you hold onto your toy so it doesn’t fall, the seatbelt holds you so you don’t bump into things.

Remember, always buckle up before the car moves—it’s your superpower for safety! 🦸‍♂️

Seatbelts are your car’s way of protecting you! 🚗🛡️ If the car stops suddenly (like during a crash), the seatbelt stops you from flying forward. Without it, you could hit the dashboard, window, or even get hurt badly.

How it works: The belt spreads the force of a sudden stop across stronger parts of your body (like your shoulders and hips) to keep you safe.

Fun tip: Race car drivers wear five-point seatbelts—they’re extra strong! 🏎️

Seatbelts are a life-saving invention based on physics! 🚗⚛️ Here’s why they’re essential:

• Inertia: Newton’s First Law says objects in motion stay in motion. During a crash, your body keeps moving forward at the car’s original speed—unless the seatbelt stops you.
• Force Distribution: The belt spreads crash forces over sturdy bones (collarbone, ribs, pelvis) instead of fragile organs.
• Airbag Synergy: Airbags only work with seatbelts! Without one, you could hit the airbag too hard and get hurt.

Pro tip: The “click” sound is a reminder—your safety matters! ✅
