THE ROAD SAFETY Authority has said that a quarter of drivers and passengers killed on Irish roads in the 10 years to 2022 were not wearing seatbelts.

In a written submission to the Oireachtas Transport Committee, the RSA also said that observational data points to a fall-off in seatbelt wearing last year.

In February, driving without a seatbelt was cited as an area of concern by Gardaí as part of their National Slow Down Day appeal.

Whether you’re in the passenger or driver seat, we want to know if you always wear your seatbelt.

So today we’re asking: Do you always wear your seatbelt?

Poll Results:

Yes, I always wear my seatbelt (13908)

No, not 100% of the time (362)
