The study reports on the performance of lap belts in 26 frontal crashes of passenger vehicles investigated by the Safety Board. The report discusses the Board's findings, selected lap belt cases, statistical estimates of seat belt effectiveness, related research on lap belt performance, and Federal regulations and manufacturers' practices on motor vehicle seat belts. The report concludes with recommendations to U.S. and foreign manufacturers of passenger vehicles, to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, to the International Chiefs of Police, and to associations and groups concerned with emergency medicine.
