Using a method designed in 1978, whereby at junctions or at exits of motorways an observer looks inside the car while it is waiting at traffic lights to see whether belts are being worn, the development of seat belt usage in The Netherlands during 1986 is described and analyzed. The usage differs according to category of road: motorway 73%, non motorway 58%, roads with mixed traffic 55% and roads with local traffic 45%. Since 1980, the presence of a passenger in the front seat has had no influence on the use of a belt by the driver. From interviews taken in 1984, it is shown that women use belts more frequently than men. Age is also a factor in the differences. Young people use the belts less than older people.
