Like I previously stated, I have been a firefighter for 5 years, I have seen first hand what the effects are of wearing vs. not wearing a seatbelt in many cases. yes, sometimes wearing a seatbelt can cause you to die as a result of the type of crash but very RARLY! You are takeing a much much greater chance by no wearing one than you do by wearing one. Remember, though it does not seem fast, a 35 mph crash, while not wearing a seatbelt, can cause you to go through the windshield. The car stops moving, you do not. simple concept of inertia. And object in motion (you) stays in motion untill acted upon by an equil or greater force (the windshield/street). In which case you are being picked up with a sponge. Sorry to be redundant but I can not stress enough the importence of wearing your seatbelt, but hey…it’s your life.

I can’t even drive to the place next door on the quiet side street without my belt on. it feels like the world turned upside down.

I always wear mine.

I broke my car windshield with my head because I wasn’t wearing one. Seat belts FTL :tdown: If not for the air bag I probably would have gone THROUGH it.

Little head to windshield impact over whiplash any day :tup:

I started wearing mine regularly since then though 😉 Lol…

If i don’t wear my seatbelt, and get into an aciddent and live… then i do.

If i dont wear my sealbelt, and get into an accident and die…then i do.

But if you dont wear your seatbelt and get tboned on the passenger side when they are only going like 30mph and die, then you suck. So instead of having a sore neck, you are dead. You(r logic) should blow me.

oh gosh beck. it’s not just your commas and apostrophe that are totally out of place. your thinking is as well.

if you don’t wear your seatbelt, get into an accident and become paralyzed from the neck or waist down, you can shit your pants for the rest of your life and not be able to fuck another girl again. how are those cards?

not wearing a seatbelt is just ghey really.

sometimes i dont put my belt on if i am going around the corner or if my back really hurts and i cant reach it without pain but other than that… its on.

even more than a safety thing, the belt holds you in place in your seat.

i drive rather aggressively and i love to kill on and off ramps all the time.

if i didnt have a belt on i would be swaying into the passenger seat.

so for that matter, saying seatbelts are ghey is like saying racing buckets are ghey or any racing seat for that matter must also be ghey because it also holds you in place and prevents you from moving too much in the cockpit.

its also much easier to take a seatbelt on and off than it is to get out of a fixed, non-reclinable racing seat…

+10 for seatbelts… i hate it when my passengers dont wear them.

For real.

Just buckle the fuck up and use your fucking brain so when you spin your car coming up another on ramp you don’t fly the fuck out of it.
