Title: Husk bilbelte (Remember seat belt) 2
Location: Nordkjosbotn, Norway
Description: Captured (through the windshield) on the way home from work. As motorists drive west along highway E6, shortly after leaving Nordkjosbotn along the Russetinden side of the fjord, 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 D12360 and D15477.)
