You are answering different question. What you are saying is called awareness campaign or something. Enforcement of seatbelts is done by police with fines/tickets and is possible cause it's visible from outside.
Other things like loudness levels inside cars cannot be monitored without going in full totalitarian mode.
- wizzwizz4 6mo agoWhy would enforcement be necessary, given assumptions 1 and 2 (not stupid, not murderers), and awareness? Around these parts, seatbelt enforcement isn't necessary because everyone voluntarily wears their seatbelt – except for children, occasionally, but the adults are generally capable of enforcing that. (Even teenagers / young adults being irresponsible in cars generally wear seatbelts while doing so.)
- broken-kebab 6mo agoCause humans works that way. We don't calculate risks based on statistics in everyday life. That means you can't just make people aware, you need to build cultural norm around that. But cultural norms without enforcement are easy to erode. When norm is systematically broken it ceases to be norm. >seatbelt enforcement isn't necessary because everyone voluntarily wears their seatbelt You obviously don't travel much. There are whole countries where seatbelts are rarely used, and drivers buy special plugs for belt receptacles to silence beeping.
