If you were in a car crash and weren't wearing your seat belt, you'd keep moving at the speed of the crash. True or false?

Answer:

True

Step-by-step explanation:

This is true

Let's say you're traveling at a speed of 100mph and you run into a pole. If you do not have a seatbelt on, your body is going to be propelled forward at the same speed. This might mean your body flinging into an airbag or dashboard at this speed, which can cause serious injuries. In some cases, people are flung out of their windshield, which can be much more fatal.
