George, Iowa — Iowa State Patrol Trooper Kevin Krull made an appearance at George-Little Rock High School on Friday, with a special piece of hardware.
The “seatbelt convincer” is a car seat mounted on a plate that is released in a controlled descent, similar to rolling down a hill, with a hard stop at the bottom to simulate impact. Krull says it gives people a good idea of why wearing a seatbelt is so necessary.
He tells us why he was at George-Little Rock specifically on Friday.
Trooper Krull says he’d be happy to bring the “Seatbelt Convincer” to your town or special event. He tells us how.
That email address again is krull@dps.state.ia.us and you can reach the Iowa State Patrol Post 6 office at 712-262-1424.
