The Cost of Persuasion'
Last year the British Transport
Ministry spent $1.7 million on
• a seat belt campaign which had
all the subtlety of • a sledge
hammer. •- Television and
newspaper advertising in Liin-
don and in Yorkshire 'showed,
in Rail''bolos, the unbelted vic-
tims of automobile collisions.
Whether or not .the advertising
campaign had a lasting effect
on persuading drivers to buckle
up, has not vet been deter -
Mined. The Ontario ° Safety
League reports that although
the Royal Automobile Club
favors.. education over I com-
pulsion, a movement is growing
for mandatory seat belt
legislation. "Possibly some
15,'000 deaths' and. serious in-
juries every year could be saved
if people wore their belts,"
Labor -member Leslie Buckfield
told the House Iasi vear.
