问题      More than 30,000 drivers and front seat passengers are killed or seriously injured each year. At a speed of only 30 miles per hour it is the same as falling from a third-floor window. Wearing a seat belt saves lives; it reduces your chance of death or serious injury by more than half.
     Therefore drivers or front seat passengers over 14 in most vehicles must wear a seat belt. If you do not, you could be fined up to 50. It will not be up to the drivers to make sure you wear your belt. But it will be the driver’ s responsibility to make sure that children under 14 do not ride in the front unless they are wearing a seat belt of some kind.
     However, you do not have to wear a seat belt if you are reversing your vehicle; or you are making a local delivery or collection using a special vehicle; or if you have a valid medical certificate which excuses you from wearing it. Make sure these circumstances apply to you before you decide not to wear your seat belt. Remember you may be taken to court for not doing so, and you may be fined if you cannot prove to the court that you have been excused from wearing it. [br] Wearing a seat belt in a vehicle______.
选项 A、reduces road accidents by more than half
B、saves lives while driving at a speed up to 30 miles per hour
C、reduces the death rate in traffic accidents
D、saves more than 15,000 lives each year
答案 C
解析 细节题。此题需要回答系上安全带会有什么样的作用或产生什么样的后果。文章第一段第三句话明确告诉读者系上安全带可以拯救生命，可以减少交通事故中的死亡和严重受伤的机会，选项C中的内容“减少交通事故中的死亡率”与之相符，而选项A所提供的内容“系上安全带可以使交通事故减少一半”与其不符，故选项C为正确答案。
