Kansas Sees Drop in Traffic Deaths Aided by Seat Belt Law
In Topeka the 1987 traffic death toll fell to 483 from 500 in 1986, with officials crediting mandatory seat belt use enacted July 1987 and outreach that raised belt usage from 9.9 percent in 1985 to 44.2 percent in 1987. Speed limit increase to 65 mph in rural interstates may offset some gains, while belt use remains uneven across counties.
