Seat Belt Convincer
The
Seat Belt Convincer was designed and fabricated by Frank as an aide in teaching people the necessity of using seatbelts to avoid serious injury in a car crashes resulting in rollovers. In the demonstration, the "dummies" in the simulator that are not restrained by a seatbelt are thrown from the simulator in a terrifying real enactment of the deadly results of seatbelt negligence. Today, the Rollover Simulator is being used by law enforcement, schools, driver training and insurance companies worldwide.
Since the first Seat Belt Convincer was built, Frank has provide the device to many agencies and companies whose objectives are:
- Reinforcing safety belt/child safety seat enforcement ;
- Enhancing public/private cooperative efforts in traffic safety;
- Increasing safety belt and child safety seat use;
- Decreasing severity of injury suffered as a consequence of rollover and other crashes;
- Increasing the number of children riding in the back seat.
