KHP touts seatbelt use in local wreck

(KAIR)--The Kansas Highway Patrol is using the outcome of a local area crash to push the point that seatbelts save lives.

On Sunday evening, the KHP posted pictures to social media showing a car and truck involved in a Jefferson County Crash.

According to the post, the driver of the car walked away from the wreck scene, while the occupants of the truck also went uninjured.

The social media post opens with the sentence, “seatbelts save lives.”

The wreck occurred on U.S. Highway 24 and Wilson Road as both vehicles were traveling westbound.

According to a comment from the KHP on the post, the cause of the crash remains under investigation, but as it happened at sunset, sunglare is cited as a possible contributing factor.
