Infographic: State Policies Protect John Through Every Stage of His Life.

This infographic shows John at ages 3, 16, 30, 55, and 70. At each age, he is protected by a different state policy.

AGE 3 (picture shows John in a car seat): John’s family mini-van is hit head-on. State child passenger restraint laws had motivated his parents to buckle him in a car seat, so he is protected from harm.
AGE 16 (picture shows John getting his learner’s permit): Through his state’s graduated driver licensing (GDL) system, John gets the time and practice he needs to become a safe driver.
AGE 30 (picture shows John buckled up in his car): John job requires him to drive for long distances. Promotion of his state’s primary enforcement seat belt law and his company’s policies motivate him to buckle up on every trip.
AGE 55 (picture shows John at a traffic stop with a police officer):John is caught driving while intoxicated at a sobriety checkpoint. Anignition interlock is installed and it saves him and others from serious injury.
AGE 70 (picture shows John buckling up his grandson in a car seat): John doesn’t drink and drive, and makes sure everyone is buckled up on every trip.
