A latest Maruti Dzire crash reveals the importance of wearing a seatbelt. A seatbelt is the single most critical way to ensure safety during an unfortunate incident. That is why it is mandatory. Dzire is the highest-selling compact sedan in the country. Buyers find its application for private, as well as commercial purposes. However, it has not performed well on the Global NCAP. That has been the case with a few Maruti cars. Nevertheless, if you don’t wear a seatbelt or drive over the speed limit, no amount of safety rating and equipment can save you. Furthermore, Maruti is improving this aspect of its latest cars. Here are the details of this fatal incident.
