Chrysler official warns belts beat airbags for life savings
Sydney L. Terry of Chrysler urges emphasis on seat belts over airbags at a public hearing on crash protection. He cites NHTSA data showing belts cut injuries and deaths, estimates 7,000 more lives saved annually with 70 percent belt use, and stresses belts are cheaper and more effective than airbags. He urges Standard 298 continuation, warning of costly air bag mandates and promotes improved belt reminders and public education.
