Senior drivers are vulnerable to automobile crashes and subsequent injury and death. Safety belts reduce health risks associated with auto crashes. Therefore, it is important to encourage senior drivers to wear safety belts while driving. Using an AB design, replicated five times, we evaluated the short- and long-term effects of a sign with the message "BUCKLE UP, STAY SAFE" attached to a stop sign at the exits of five different senior communities. Safety belt use was stable during two pretreatment assessments averaged across the five sites and 250 drivers (72% and 68% usage), but significantly increased following installation of these signs (94% usage). Six months after installation of the signs, the effect persisted (88% usage). Use of such signs may be a cost-effective way of promoting safety belt use.
老年司机容易遭遇车祸并因此受伤甚至死亡。安全带能降低与车祸相关的健康风险。因此，鼓励老年司机在驾车时系安全带很重要。我们采用AB设计，重复五次，评估了在五个不同老年社区出口的停车标志上附加“系好安全带，确保安全”信息标志的短期和长期效果。在五个地点和250名司机进行的两次预处理评估中，安全带使用率稳定（使用率分别为72%和68%），但在安装这些标志后显著提高（使用率为94%）。标志安装六个月后，效果持续存在（使用率为88%）。使用此类标志可能是促进安全带使用的一种经济有效的方式。
