Survey: Seatbelt use jump!
up to 60 percent in Texas
By Kelly Chapman
Reporter
Six out of 10 Texans have added a step to their driv
ing routine by buckling up when getting behind the
wheel, a recent survey revealed.
The Texas Transportation Institute for the highwav
department reported an increase in safety-hell usage
within the past six months. The institute conducted a
survey of 1S cities and found an increase f rom f)4.1 per
cent in January to 59.2 in June, a gain of 5.1 percent.
A law mandating seat-belt use took effect Sept. I,
1985, but tickets were not issued until Jan. 1, 1986, said
Gary Trietsch, safety and traffic operations engineer
with the highway department.
After the law went into effect, seat-belt usage aver
aged 66.1 percent but dropped to 55.7 percent by Jan
uary of this year. Over the past six months the average
has increased to 60.6 percent, a 4.9 percent rise.
“We attribute much of the rise to stronger law«
forcement efforts,” Trietsch said. “Without policen
there writing tickets, some people just won’t taketin
to buckle up.
“We’re very encouraged by the increase in safetv-lx
use. Public education is important in getting peoplej
understand why they should use seat belts, but it seen
some people have to believe they really might fjei
ticket before they’ll change their behavior."
The city showing the highest usage rate wasCni],
Chisti with 88.3 percent, followed by Austin witharai
of 72.5 percent. However, Laredo showed the higlic
increase in percentage of seat-belt use between Jam®
and June with an increase of 17.7 percent.
El paso was next with a 17-point rise, lollowedli
Tyler with a 14.3 percent increase.

AUSTIN (AP) — In the first case
of its kind in Austin, a man with
AIDS has sued one of the city’s larg
est law firms, alleging job discrimi
nation.
Gilbert R. Nieto filed suit in state
District Court against the law firm of
Clark, Thomas, Winters & Newton,
contending that the firm discrimi
nated against him by firing him after
he was diagnosed with AIDS-related
complex in August 1987.
Barry Bishop, a partner with
Clark, Thomas, Winters Sc Newton,
denied that Nieto was fired because
of his disease.
AZLE (AP) — A woman who
hated her short-in-front, long-in-
back haircut returned to the salon
with a refund demand and a rifle.
The unsatisfied customer then
drove off in her battered orange
pickup truck, and Parker County
deputies were having trouble find
ing her.
“AIDS had nothing whatsoever to
do with that decision,” Bishop said.
In the lawsuit filed Monday Nieto
seeks reinstatement to his job as a
paralegal with the firm, restoration
of his insurance benefits, back pay,
attorneys’ fees and an unspecified
amount of damages for “severe
mental and physical anguish.”
‘‘They (deputies) said, ‘You
wouldn’t believe the number of
orange pickup trucks in Azle and
Springtown,” said Melinda Free
man, owner of The Hair and Tan
ning Salon between Azle and
Springtown, just northwest of Fort
Worth.
Freeman said the woman
ited the salon once before,
come hack Saturday toaskthauli

man recalled Monday.
Displeased with the repairjotj
unidentified woman returned^
day morning and got w hat sheas!
for — a cut that was “short up(rs
long in the back,” the beaut
said.
The customer, still dissatisf;
became outraged when herdeit:
for an $8 refund was rejected,
“That’s when she pulled thenl
Freeman said.
Wednesday
His attorney, Phil Durst, said the
lawsuit was filed after the Austin
Human Rights Commission ruled in
Nieto’s favor in July on a complaint
he had filed with the agency about
his lost job.
“They made a finding that there
was cause to believe that discrimina
tion had occurred,” Durst said.
