Hispanic Buckle Up Toolkit

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, traffic crashes are the leading cause of death in the United States among Hispanics under age 34. With this toolkit, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) and the National Latino Children’s Institute (NLCI) aim to educate immigrant Hispanics about the importance of seat belts and increase the use of restraints.

These traffic safety materials in Spanish are for use by local, State, and national traffic safety advocates to educate the Hispanic community on seat belt safety in the United States, especially those newly-arrived to the States who are unfamiliar with our safety laws.
