Transportation Secretary Norman Mineta today announced that 43 states will share approximately $38.2 million in National Highway Traffic Safety Administration grants for states that develop innovative projects to increase seat belt use. “I am pleased to
see these funds provided to states to promote seat belt use,” Secretary Mineta said. “Everyone should buckle up for every trip because seat belts are the best protection available in a crash. Their use improves safety and can prevent injury and death.”
