Title: Husk bilbelte (Remember seat belt) 1

Location: Tromsdalen, Norway

Description: Captured (through the windshield) after a work seminar in Tromsø. As motorists drive southwest along highway E8, shortly after leaving Tromsø along the Tromsdalen side of the sound, a transportation department (Statens vegvesen) sign reminds: “Husk bilbelte” (“Remember your seat belt”)—a positive, clear message about the importance of wearing a seat belt. Rather than the negative “Click it or ticket” slogans prevalent in the traffic-police-focused USA, Norway instead focuses on the meaning of the law by showing one loved one draping a protective arm over another like a shoulder belt. (Google “husk bilbelte kampanje” for clearer versions of this sign, as well as other, similar signs.) (Compare mhp777.com images D12773 and D15477.)
