Don't understand the whole "not wearing one" deal.. mine pisses me the hell off even with a shoulder pad on it.. still wear it.
And I yell at anyone that doesn't wear the lap belt in my car... I need to do the auto-to-manual seatbelt conversion now that I think about it.

Was that a UK commercial? (Don't watch tv really) They're always the most dramatic-- they need to show that gory texting/cellphone commercial over here. It played out like a real-life accident. No music until after the crews came to get the teen out of her car. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R0LCmStIw9E) <--Really sad.

[Razi]

I always wear mine.

[AZ89two4Tsx]

Lol, my car's reciever to the belt is worn out so even if you shift positions, it comes unbuckled. And since I did the S14 belt conversion, it voids the Nissan warranty.

But yeah, I still wear it. Most of the time.

I always wear my seat belt. I feel unsafe without it. I can't understand why it isn't a habit for everyone.

[seang]

I don't even feel right not wearing it anymore.

That's disappointing to hear. My car does not move until everyone is buckled in.

Repost but still a good video

[Gold Digger]

My car doesn't move till everyone has their seat belts on.

A few weeks ago, I gave my brother-in-law a ride to the home store. He put the belt on before we got moving, but halfway there, he took it off. I pulled over and stopped. After about 30 seconds he asked what was wrong. I said nothing but just pointed to the belt latch that had no belt in it.

He buckled up and never took it off again.

Both of my wife brothers and her father NEVER wear their belts. They have vans and cruise down the highway at over 150kmh and their kids are in the car with no belts either.

I refuse to ride with them anymore, nor will I let my kids ride with them.

So sick of wear your seatbelt this and wear your seatbelt that....the only time mine is on is when I see a seatbelt check, because the greedy bastards in Connecticut love to hand out the seatbelt tickets.

I will probably never wear my seatbelt on the regular, ever. So flame me all you want, but that's just my choice. Believe me, seatbelt laws in many states are not for safety, but just another thing to make quota on.

[Xdisaster240sX]

Wow...I really dont know what to say to that...I guess....Your an idiot will have to do.

[mattblancarte]

lol timay you must be a troll

[Dire91]

Hahahah Timay you are so ignorant is hilarious.
This is you in no time

I hope it feels good!

My parents forced me to wear a seatbelt every time I got in a car when I was growing up, just feels weird not to now.

[ScrapMetal]

Believe me, seatbelt laws in many states are not for safety, but just another thing to make quota on.

Of course in many states seat belt laws aren't just for safety, they're also a way for the local governments to make extra cash on suckers like you.

Seat belts save lives, case closed.

It's your decision... and a major one at that. They do hand out the seat belt tickets for a reason. They save lives. Its not like you have the time to put on your seat belt in the event of an accident.

[Mr1der]

I always wear mine.

I cinch it tight too.

[Xdisaster240sX]

DRIVE CAM IS A BEAST! When I work for a locating company called Utiliquest, We had them. Once a week we would have meetings and watch how dumb other locators are and watching their faces makes it that much better.

I can relate. I always ALWAYS wear mine (it doesn't feel right without it), and even tighten it up while I'm driving, but damnit, those bilboards and commercials and cheesy radio ads really piss me off. Same thing with those stupid "Truth" commercials about not smoking. I don't smoke, but damn, those hippies make me want to smoke an entire pack at once.

[Chaotic_Warlord]

Honestly I would rather have the bruises you get from a seatbelt after a major accident than to be dead. I used to do the whole the car doesn't move until everyone is buckled in but it's not worth the aggravation anymore.

The other thing that people do that really piss me off are putting there feet on the dashboard or worse hanging them out the window... Seriously if you want to have your femur stab you in the head during a serious accident or have your feet chopped off I'll be happy to comply

[AppleBonker]

I'm guilty of occasionally not wearing the belt for short trips. It's something I need to be better about.

I'm pretty sure I saw this add when it was on tv. That was a while ago though.

[timay]

Haha thats funny, i'm a troll, an idiot, whatever. I have heard in some cases of people actually being killed by their seatbelts in serious accidents.

The putting your feet on the dashboard or out the window, now that's idiotic.

[cellardoorv]

Not trying to cram any message down anyone's throat. I just thought it was powerfully and artfully done. I hadn't seen it before, sorry if it was a repost.

And Timay, many many many more deaths have happened because of not wearing a seatbelt, versus being trapped, etc while wearing one. Just sayin'. I'm sure you know all that jazz, and you're just trying to scrap, so I'll save you the linkage.

[timay]

Yeah I just checked out some stuff online, saw some interesting statistics and all that.

Still not changing my mind on the seatbelt thing, funny thing is, I always used to wear a seatbelt when I was younger, even telling my parents to buckle up. When I first started driving I always did too, then I kinda just stopped.

I apologize to anyone I may be insulting here. I've felt for a long time that anyone who doesn't feel the need to do something so absurdly simple as buckling your seat belt deserves whatever s**t they have coming in a crash. I survived a head on crash cause I was wearing my seat belt. If I hadn't my face would have been mush against the steering wheel. I have no doubt in my mind I would have died otherwise.

Think that seat belt is so damn uncomfortable? A coffin is a lot worse.


(BTW, anyone else notice the swear filter is not working?)

[Xdisaster240sX]

So to you people against seat belts, How do you feel about racing harnesses like Takata or Sparco for example?

[r34 gtr]

I almost died too many times doing dumb car-related stuff at a young and tender age to ever ride in a vehicle without a seat belt on.

Seriously, Loki is living proof that seat belts work. That was a NASTY accident, in a vert too. For me, I'm just NOT comfortable not wearing a seatbelt. Not even safety-wise, it just feels weird to have it off.

Wow you're such a rebel I bet all the girls get turned on when they hear you talking about refusing to wear your seatbelt. Good for you man, bring down the man, the man cant tell you what to do. The man is just trying to suck all the money out of you by making you use that life saving device. The man isn't trying to help you. The man can't tell you to take safety precautions while driving! If you want to get decapitated thats your choice! The man can't stop that!

Sorry if that was abrasive, thats just the most ignorant mess I've seen in a while.

Where's that darned popcorn smiley hiding?

He got in the way of the popcorn so I ate him also
