Tragedy Shows Need for Better Safety Regulations
Another driving accident tragedy has occurred due to a church van not being fitted with seat belts. Why is it (that) in this day and age seat belts still are not required in vehicles used to transport more than 10 people, and thus considered a bus?
In the recent bus crash involving the California Angels, because of the lack of seat belts, many severe injuries occurred, and it was fortunate no fatalities resulted.
One has to wonder what it will take to get our legislators to impose seat-belt regulations in all vehicles, including buses.
