Abstract:Increasing fine levels is a strategy that has potential to further raise seat belt use, in addition to primary law upgrades and high-visibility enforcement. Although the regression analyses did not find a statistically significant effect associated with media, the public needs to be aware of laws and fine changes before compliance is likely. Publicizing fine increases is essential for maximizing their effectiveness.
