A New Jersey state law, set to go into effect in 2011, will require all rear-seat passengers to wear seat belts.
Currently, the state seat belt law only requires the driver and front-seat passenger to buckle up. Research from the Consumer Product Safety Commission shows that rear-seat seat belt use dramatically increases in states with stricter laws, and that rear seat belt use can increase a person’s chances of survival in vehicle accidents by up to 50 percent. New Jersey will become the 23rd state in the nation with a law that requires rear seat belt use.
