No Seatbelt: Fort Worth Man Killed in Arlington Rollover Accident on I-20

A 38 year old driver from Fort Worth died this morning when his pickup rolled over in Arlington on I-20 near highway 287. The Arlington Police spokesman said he was not wearing his seatbelt and was thrown from the truck. He was taken to John Peter Smith Hospital where he died. A passenger was also taken to JPS where he was treated for minor injuries.

This unfortunate wreck highlights the danger of driving without a seatbelt. Airbags do indeed help in certain collisions, but they do nothing for rollover accidents. Who knows, if the driver had been using his seatbelt, he might have been treated for minor injuries.
