QASA is committed to the prevention of spinal-cord injury through many road safety initiatives.
The QASA seatbelt convincer was deployed at the Clarkson, Hammond and May Live show, which was held at the Northgate Dome in Johannesburg in June (see our feature on page 8), to emphasise the importance of using seatbelts. Members of House Otto were manning the activity and hundreds of people had the opportunity to experience the impact of a head-on collision at eight kilometres per hour on the seatbelt convincer.
