Thank you, Madam Chair.
I want to thank all the witnesses for joining us this morning.
Mr. Benson, I'll start with you, since you've been studying this issue for a long time.
I'm pleased to see a very broad consensus, even unanimity, with regard to the importance of seatbelt use. A few years ago, we wouldn't have imagined that the Americans would adopt this measure before us.
Can you summarize how the Americans transitioned, after they had accepted the regulations? Can we draw any inspiration for our own transition?
