The information requested is not available.Research reported in the published ““Second Review of the Government's Road Safety Strategy”” and ““Road Safety Research Report No. 76: Trends in Fatal Car-occupant Accidents”” both published on 26 February 2007, estimates that about a third of fatally injured car occupants were not wearing their seatbelts. For 2005 figures, it represents about 565 people, and it is estimated that about 370 people might have survived if they had been properly restrained. This research also reported that higher proportions of fatally injured car occupants were not wearing seatbelts in cars driven by young drivers. These reports are available at the following links and have also been deposited in the Libraries of the House:"http://www.dft.gov.uk/pgr/roadsafety/strategytargetsperformance/2ndreview/""http://www.dft.gov.uk/pgr/roadsafety/research/rsrr/theme5/76?version=2"A research report giving further details on seat belt wearing has also been published by TRL limited:"http://www.trl.co.uk/store/report_detail.asp?srid=6160&pid=220"
