A 47-year-old man from Perris died in a violent freeway crash on August 24, 2022, after his car rolled multiple times—exactly because he wasn’t wearing a seat belt. Despite 95% of Californians buckling up, nearly half of all passenger vehicle fatalities in 2022 involved unrestrained drivers. CHP officers say seat belts often mean the difference between life and death—even in crashes that seem minor. Meanwhile, freeways like the 405 remain choked with traffic, even after costly upgrades, as constant merging and peak-hour congestion keep delays alive—a daily struggle for drivers and planners alike.
