Adults have gotten the message that it’s safer for kids to ride in the back seat properly restrained, but when it comes to their own safety, there is a common misperception that buckling up is optional. Among adults who admit to not always using safety belts in the back seat, 4 out of 5 surveyed by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety say short trips or traveling by taxi or ride-hailing service are times they don’t bother to use the belt.
The new survey reveals that many rear-seat passengers don’t think belts are necessary because they perceive the back seat to be safer than the front. This shows a clear misunderstanding about why belts are important, no matter where a person sits in a vehicle.
Before the majority of Americans got into the habit of buckling up, the back seat was the safest place to sit, and the center rear seat was the safest place of all in 1960-70s’ era vehicles. In recent decades, high levels of restraint use, the advent of belt pretensioners, load limiters and airbags, plus crashworthy vehicle designs have narrowed the safety advantages of riding in the rear seat for teens and adults.

Esta temporada festiva, regala un galón de leche. La leche es uno de los artículos más solicitados por las personas que durante todo el año acuden a los bancos de alimentos en busca de ayuda, pero aún más durante la temporada de fiestas, que es cuando los bancos de alimentos –incluidos aquellos situados en tu comunidad- están más solicitados.
Cuando agradezcas por las cosas que has recibido este año, puedes actuar en contra del hambre donando al Proyecto Alimento: Leche Para America, el primer programa nacional destinado a ayudar a entregar los tan deseados y ricos en nutrientes galones de leche a las familias con hambre que más los necesitan.

Ummagma is a Canadian-Ukrainian duo delivering an eclectic, harmonious potpourri of sublime resonance, beats and rhythm. McLarnon’s delicate airy gossamer-like vocals are often compared to Liz Fraser (Cocteau Twins) with glimmers of Stereolab, The Sundays, Curve, Nathalie Merchant and Slowdive. Kretov's spellbinding guitar, vocals, synths, beats, programming & effects create soundscapes with elements of Pink Floyd Peter Gabriel to help you take flight. Ummagma won the 2013 Alternative Eurovision from 21 countries, and picked up 2 awards at the Australian Independent Music Video Awards. This duo has regularly featured in The Scottish New Music Chart and had a full-page feature in Rolling Stone Russia.
