South Australia Police have launched a graphic new seatbelt road safety campaign called “Wouldn’t Hurt”, as a part of its road safety education efforts to increase safety on South Australian roads.
The graphically powerful campaign delivers a strong message depicting the real consequences of crashes involving drivers who choose not to wear a seatbelt.
“The crashes and depicted injuries were designed with input from investigators attached to South Australia Police’s Major Crash Investigation Section, who brought detailed expertise in the forensic features of crashes to the depiction of common regional and metropolitan crashes,” South Australian Police said on their YouTube page.
The organization adds “It is hoped the campaign will shake the apathy from drivers and passengers and make them realise it wouldn’t hurt to wear a seatbelt.”
“It wouldn’t hurt will run state-wide on digital platforms, billboards, television, radio and outdoor billboards in an effort to reach and remind people that not wearing a seatbelt has much more serious consequences than just receiving an expiation,” said Superintendent Darren Fielke.
“The stories in the campaign are grim for a reason; they are real.”
