Seat Belts by David C. Viano Pdf

Thanks to decades of research, development and legislation, the seat belt has become as critical to the automobile as the engine. This collection highlights the progression of these essential safety features, providing a complete and thorough perspective through the analysis of both early patents and recent seat belt developments. Seat Belts: The Development of an Essential Safety Feature begins with new material from editor David C. Viano, delving into the surprisingly extensive history of safety belt designs (which began around 1880 with a simple safety harness). The publication then clearly demonstrates that, since this first related patent, great strides have been made in all aspects of seat belt design and performance, with groundbreaking research continuing in the quest for maximum occupant safety. Contents include: Seat Belt Systems and Performance; System Enhancements/Features; Seat Belt Restraint Issues; Alternatives to Manual, Body-Mounted 3-Point Belts; Rear Occupants and Children.

Buckling Up by Anonim Pdf

Increasing seat belt use is one of the most effective and least costly ways of reducing the lives lost and injuries incurred on the nation's highways each year, yet about one in four drivers and front-seat passengers continues to ride unbuckled. The Transportation Research Board, in response to a congressional request for a study to examine the potential of in-vehicle technologies to increase belt use, formed a panel of 12 experts having expertise in the areas of automotive engineering, design, and regulation; traffic safety and injury prevention; human factors; survey research methods; economics; and technology education and consumer interest. This panel, named the Committee for the Safety Belt Technology Study, examined the potential benefits of technologies designed to increase belt use, determined how drivers view the acceptability of the technologies, and considered whether legislative or regulatory actions are necessary to enable their installation on passenger vehicles. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), the study sponsor, funded and conducted interviews and focus groups of samples of different belt user groups to learn more about the potential effectiveness and acceptability of technologies ranging from seat belt reminder systems to more aggressive interlock systems, and provided the information collected to the study committee. The committee also supplemented its expertise by holding its second meeting in Dearborn, Michigan, where it met in proprietary sessions with several of the major automobile manufacturers, a key supplier, and a small business inventor of a shifter interlock system to learn of planned new seat belt use technologies as well as about company data concerning their effectiveness and acceptability. The committee's findings and recommendations are presented in this five-chapter report.
