Learning Objective
At the end of this topic, you will be able to understand about:
• Seat Belts
• Air Bags
• Energy-Absorber Safety Bumpers
• Security and Antitheft Devices
Introduction:
A seat belt can be called as a safety belt. There are three kinds of antitheft devices. Mostly, energy absorbers are fixed between the bumper reinforcement bar or bumper face bar and the frame.
The following media (Seat Belts) explains about the seat belts.

In this media, you will learn about ‘Seat Belts’.
Seat Belts:
A seat belt is known as a safety belt.

• The passive safety system works automatically if there is any accident.
• An airbag is a safety device of the vehicle.
Summary:
Thus, from this topic you have learned about active and passive security systems. Locking devices, disabling devices and alarm systems are the three kinds of antitheft devices. Airbag is one of the passive safety systems for the passengers of the car.

The seat belt law is for some reason hotly debated, but, according to the constitution and the court rulings, the decision seems rather obvious. The topic in my opinion requires no further debate as it is easily protected by our government’s legislative
The number one cause of adolescent deaths is due to car crashes, with adolescents being in the majority, at fault. Decades of law reform efforts have led to mandatory seatbelt laws, an increased legal drinking age, and graduated-driver-licensing systems (Hamilton, V. E. (2014). Adolescents receive their drivers’ license at a much younger age than their counterparts in other countries, making driving the greatest health threat among adolescents in the U.S. Despite decades of law reform efforts that have led to mandatory seatbelt laws, an increase in the legal drinking age, and graduated-driver-licensing systems this still doesn’t seem to be enough to reduce the percentage of fatalities caused by adolescent drivers involved in fatal car crashes
The current legal drinking age has reduced the number of fatalities (Jones, Pieper, and Robertson 112). Although this is true, alcohol isn’t the only factor that should be considered. The enforcement of seat belt use is also a major point in the study that often isn’t referred to. Tests have show that the number of automobile-accident deaths have decreased since the mid-1900s; consequently, the MLDA was put into force around the same time. Many argue that the increased drinking age is why these accidents have decreased; however, around the same time the usage of safety belts in cars was emphasized more during this time.
Anyone who drives would more than likely admit to being distracted while driving. Many forms of distraction exist while driving. The most common forms include texting while driving, focusing the mind on something else, and talking with others in the car. The distractions people take part in create many serious problems like death. People do not realize that the smallest distractions can result in a life changing event.

IDS RESPONSES AGAINSTATTACK The preconfigured settings determines the response of IDS whenever there is any intrusion or attack. Based on the severity, the response can range from mere alert notification to blocking of the attacks. The key issue for safety and efficacy are based on the appropriate reactions on the threats.

Teen driving is a very debated topic as of late. According to the IIHS, “Crashes are the leading cause of death among American teens, more than ⅓ of all deaths of 16-18 year olds”. I am a teen driver myself and I always hear my parents telling me to “be careful”, “no texting”, and “watch the road”. I currently only have one speeding ticket and zero accidents under my belt so far, so I’d like to think that I am a good driver. Yes, I know teen drivers who are downright awful, but I also a lot of great teen drivers who take every precaution.

In this article topics like “Building the Foundation for the Smart Driver Transformation” and “Connected Vehicle Safety Pilot Model Deployment” are very important when it comes to making the change from smart drives to smart cars. The article also talks about the amount of safety nets that have to be but in place to make sure that the cars can communicate with the sensors they have to communicate with. Kirkpatrick, K. (2015).

Seat Belt Laws Motor vehicle crashes are the number one cause of death for people ages 1-54 in the United States every year. Seat belts are the most effective way to prevent some of these deaths. With that being said, primary seat belt laws should be recognized and made illegal not to wear a seatbelt when riding in a car in all 50 states. While wearing a seat belt, injuries and fatalities are less likely to occur in an accident. Too many people disregard the risks they are taking when they choose not to wear a seatbelt in a car.
Speed limits are vital to ensure people’s safety, both the driver’s and surrounding pedestrians. The most common cause of road accidents are because of speeding. The higher speed increases the chance of an accident. Enforcing speed limits may help prevent accident that occur on roads. Statistics show the Each year over 700 people are killed in crashes involving someone exceeding the speed limit.
In 2009, seatbelts were reported at saving almost thirteen thousand lives of drivers and front passengers. Research done by the
