BUCKLEBEAR
BUCKLEBEAR wants YOU and YOUR little ones to ride his way. Riding in a car the BUCKLEBEAR way is the safe way!
Through discussion, a video presentation, a rhyme and a song, BUCKLEBEAR teaches children about car safety. By encouraging the use of seat belts, BUCKLEBEAR helps ensure each ride is a safe one.

Riding the BUCKLEBEAR Way
- Everybody Buckles Up!
Unrestrained passengers can cause injuries to others, as well as themselves.
- Buckle Across Hips, Not Tummy!
For maximum safety, buckle the regulation belt over hips, not tummy.
- Riding the NICE way!
Buckled-up children are good passengers. They don’t interfere with the driver.
- Sidewalk Side for Safety!
Exit on the grass or curb side. On the street side, passing drivers may not see small children.
- Back Seat, Best Seat!
Most statistics show the back seat to be the safest. There’s less hard surface to collide with in a sudden stop or collision.
