‘Tighten Your Seat-Belt Law’

Share via

The Times was “right on†in its editorial (June 7), “Tighten Your Seat-Belt Law,†recommending that the Legislature act on passing mandatory seat-belt laws.

The Times’ crisp, to-the-point evaluation and summary was in the public interest and in the interest of saving lives NOW!

For your information, New York officials, according to recent reports, now estimate that as many as 500 lives may be saved by that state’s mandatory seat-belt law.
