What percentage of children are not buckled into their seat when riding in an automobile?

In both 1985 and 1990, younger children were more likely than older children to routinely wear a seat belt or be in a child safety seat. In 1990, 87 percent of 1-4 year old children were reported to have used seat belts (or a child safety seat) all or most of the time, compared to 68 percent of 15-17 year olds (see Figure SD 2.3). However, as mentioned above, the greatest increases in seat belt usage occurred among children ages 5-17. In fact, the older the age group, the greater the increase in the percentage who regularly wore their seat belts. (http://aspe.hhs.gov/hsp/97trends/sd2-3.h...





The percentage of children who buckled up or using car seats as required by state law is declining, according to a study for the Colorado Department of Transportation. The study, conducted in August by Colorado State University found that seat-belt use for children ages 4 through 15 decreased to 43.8 percent in 2000 from 46.1 percent in 1998.
