Commuter Train Disaster Drill in September
We Need Seat Belts will Be There

     The nation's largest ever commuter train disaster drill will be held on Saturday, September 15th, in the Chicago area.  1,100 people will participate in the event.  500 volunteers will serve as victims, including 100 with serious injuries.  40 fire departments, 30 police departments, the Federal Railroad Administration and the National Transportation Safety Board will all be there.

Supporters bring you Rob Sherman Advocacy.

      We Need Seat Belts has made arrangements with local officials for a very visible location at the mock disaster from which We Need Seat Belts will conduct informational picketing.  WNSB will communicate to interested reporters and officials that most, if not all, of the mock injuries would never have occurred if only the passengers had been wearing 3-point seat belts. 
 
      We Need Seat Belts wants you to join them at this event.  This is an unprecedented opportunity for We Need Seat Belts to get literally ten million dollars of publicity about this issue for free.  Bring as many additional supporters as you can.  Appropriate signs with a consistent message will be provided to you.  All you have to do is RSVP and show up. 
 
      This can be the definitive event to turn the tide in favor of getting 3-point seat belts on trains and busses.  You can be a part of history and a part of saving countless lives and preventing thousands of unnecessary injuries by showing up to demonstrate your support for 3-point seat belts on trains and busses.
 
      The location of the event will be the Wisconsin Central Railroad tracks in Wheeling, Illinois -- virtually walking distance from the office of Liberal News and Commentary and the office of We Need Seat Belts.  The date is Saturday, September 15, beginning at 7:30 AM and going into the early afternoon.

      If you are willing to spend just one morning out of your life to save the lives of hundreds and to prevent unnecessary injury to thousands, please get in touch with We Need Seat Belts by using any of the contact methods provided on the We Need Seat Belts home page, or use the contact information below.  Thank you.
