- Nominee must be a Tennessee resident.
- Any person and/or their spouse and children involved in a motor vehicle crash whose
lives were saved or injuries reduced because of the use of a safety restraint or air bag and safety belt.
- The crash occurred after December 31, 2007 to present.
- Nominees must be using the proper combination of safety restraints. For example, safety belts were properly used in vehicles equipped with an airbag; use of the manual lap belt is required with some automatic belt systems; child nominees who are required to be restrained by a child safety seat must be properly secured in the child restraint and the restraint must be properly secured in the vehicle by a safety belt.
- Nominees may not be the driver of the “at-fault” vehicle; i.e., if the crash review finds the crash could have been prevented the nominee will NOT qualify.
