I accept that fatalities constitute a very small number of the overall driving cohort, but I think the figure we were given last year was that 27% of fatalities had not been wearing seatbelts. Is that still the case? Is there still serious non-compliance with the use of seatbelts or is it just that the people who end up in accidents are the very few people who are not wearing them? Is the Garda still looking for people not wearing seatbelts and finding them?
