From March 26 through
November 29, the Insurance
Corporation of British Col-
umbia is taking the Seat Belt
Convincer to 36 com-
munities as part of a
province-wide tour.

The concept of a
province-wide scat belt
demonstration program
emerged from the en-
thusiastic public response to
Convincer appearances at
last summer's Pacific Na-
tional Exhibition in Van-
couver, and follow-up ap-
pearances on Vancouver
Island.

Organized by the Road
Safety Department of the In-
surance Corporation, the up-
coming demonstration pro-
gram will visit every arca of
the province.

The public will also be in-
vited to view a brief audio-

In addition, a display il-

belt and child restraint
brochures will also be
available to the public.

“The favourable response
to last year’s program led to
the formation of a province-
wide Convincer tour,” said
Hugh Earle, Manager of the
Insurance Corporation's
Road Safety Department.

“We feel the program we
will be presenting is educa-
tional and of benefit to the
public throughout the pro-
vince. And we are pleased
