front seat than the rear seat. kris van cleave explains why. >> reporter: a new safety review is raising questions about the effectiveness of seat belts in the back seats of cars and trucks. they save lives but could be better. crash tests show up front belts automatically tighten while front and side airbags deploy, keeping people away from the steering wheel and dashboard. those belts also have force limiters to reduce the risk of chest injuries. but in the back there are no front airbags and the seat belts lack those potentially life-saving features, making it possible for passengers to collide with parts of the vehicle interior. the insurance institute for highway safety wants car makers to make the back seat as safe as the front. president david harkey. >> what we're finding is that the rear seat passengers in vehicles that do not have those technologies are often subject to more severe injuries than their front seat passengers in that same vehicle. >> reporter: iihs looked at 117

front end crashes where the back seat passenger was injured or killed but was wearing a seat belt. the most common injury was to the chest. most of the 37 fatalities were in crashes that were considered survivable. head injuries were found in nine injured back seat passengers and 18 fatalities. iihs is now designing a crash test focused on back seat safety. the institute is not recommending any specific changes yet to carmakers. but in 2017 nearly 1,800 people in the back seat died in crashes. more than half were not wearing their seat belts. it's a reminder to buckle up regardless. jeff? >> okay. kris van cleave in the back seat there, not driving. kris, thank you very much. we are hearing for the first time from an american woman taken hostage in uganda. kimberly endicott and her guide were kidnapped at gunpoint earlier this month while on safari. they were held for nearly five days before being released. endicott shared the details of her ordeal with gayle king of

you. run, run, run or i'll slap you." but that's when i felt him shaking and -- >> the kidnapper was shaking? >> mm-hmm. when he had a hold of my arm. and i thought to myself, is this methamphetamines? is this fear? and at that point i didn't know. but it just was something that i was very aware of very quickly. that he's shaking. >> because if he's shaking and it's not drugs you're thinking maybe he's nervous too. >> he's afraid. >> yeah. >> yeah. so -- >> did that give you some comfort to know that maybe he was nervous? >> not yet. because if it's drugs then i'm in a world of problems. >> you can see more of gayle's interview with kimberly endicott on "cbs this morning." up next, why the new tax law is proving costly for gold star families.

new tax laws have brought big surprises for a number of gold star families. they have seen taxes on their military survivor benefits go way up. here's janet shamlian. >> reporter: theresa jones has been a single mom to anthony and hunter for almost six years. her husband, landon, a navy

chopper pilot, died in the red sea during "operation enduring freedom" in 2013. >> there you go. >> reporter: it's been a challenge for jones, especially financially. they've been able to stay afloat because of the survivor benefits they receive, aid that came with an unexpected surprise at tax time. >> when i saw that tax bill, i was shocked at -- at how much these boys owed on benefits that were given to them. so ultimately i had to pay. >> reporter: the boys each received about $15,000 in survivor benefits last year. jones was hit with a tax bill of $5,400 for the boys, up from $1,100 the previous year. how much does that income mean to your family? >> that's how they have a roof over their heads. that's how they have food in their mouths. that's why the lights are on right now. that's how we survive every single month. >> reporter: because a surviving spouse can't receive both veterans affairs and defense department benefits simultaneously in full, gold star parents often sign the taxable d.o.d. benefits over to

their children. tax law lumps gold star children into a bracket known as "the kiddie tax," which has risen to 37%, much higher than survivor children previously paid. >> we got lumped into that. and somebody had said to me, well, welcome to the top 4%. i said, my 5-year-old is not a top 4%. >> reporter: the white house did not respond to cbs news's request for comment. besides her most important job as mom, jones works part-time and is going to school. with the new tax burden something will have to give. she hopes it won't be her home. >> it's home for the boys. it's all they've known. and i would hate to take that away from them. they've already had so much taken away from them. >> reporter: families who made the ultimate sacrifice paying once again. janet shamlian, cbs news, coronado, california. coming up here tonight, thin ice puts penguins in peril. you wouldn't accept an incomplete job

from any one else. so why accept it from your allergy pills? most pills don't finish the job because they don't relieve nasal congestion. flonase allergy relief is different. flonase relieves sneezing, itchy, watery eyes and a runny nose, plus nasal congestion, which pills don't. flonase helps block 6 key inflammatory substances. most pills only block one. and 6 is greater than 1. start your day with flonase for more complete allergy relief. flonase. this changes everything.

on this world penguin day we are covering the plight of one of the world's largest colonies. chip reid has more on a forced march to thicker ice. >> reporter: emperor penguins have long endured the brutal conditions of antarctica, but now satellite imagery shows that

for the past three years their second largest colony, where up to 25,000 pairs mate each year, has suffered a catastrophic breeding failure. the cause? unusually warm and stormy weather has destroyed the stable sea ice where they breed. >> so in some ways this is a story of survival. >> reporter: emperor penguins, the largest of all penguins, were the stars of the oscar-winning documentary "march of the penguins" which followed their grueling 60-mile trek to their breeding grounds, where temperatures approach 80 degrees below zero. in 2017 cbs news saw firsthand the overall decrease in penguin populations in antarctica. scientists predict the emperor population will decrease 50% to 70% by the end of the century. but there was a surprise in the new study. the same satellite imagery showed an increase in a penguin colony more than 30 miles away which is better suited for breeding. peter fretwell is with the british antarctic survey.
