    I think the seatbelt law is BS for adults. I don't think that because I am forced to wear a seatbelt someone else should be forced to wear a helmet.

    Seat belts are designed to keep you in the car.
    You tube is full of examples of people getting ejected and in most cases killed because of it.
    Your chances are much better if you stay in the car.

    Do your research before you reject the seat belt and it benefits.

    Yes, I know what seat belts are for. I never made any claims that they didn't work.

    That doesn't mean I want to wear it. I'm more comfortable without it and it's my body to be thrown from a vehicle.

    Yeah, it makes identification of your body easier........:rolleyes:

    Read once that a person would have to be able to bench press 4,000 pounds to keep their face off the windshield in a 40 mph crash.

    I'd like to sit and watch the line of applicants wanting to apply for a seat belt exemption!

    Ok then by your own admission if you are not wearing your seat belt and you get hurt it an accident, then you should have to foot the bill for your own hospital bills, and not let the rest of the public take up the slack in higher rates for there insurance, because you refuses to wear one.

    Nothing is garneted, much is circumstance. For instance, someone gets shot at point blank range in the head with a .357 and they survive. By the same token someone gets shot in the head with a pellet gun and dies.
    There is no guaranty of anything, but more protection does translate to better survival.

    As I have already stated, insurance companies can insert clauses requiring seat belts in order to receive any pay outs. They can offer separate plans if they choose. This would have those who don't wear seat belts who wish to be covered to pay a higher premium if the insurer deems it necessary.



    You're chasing a shadow here.

    Well here in the US it is mandatory by law that everyone wears a seat belt or be subjected to a fine. I know of no insurance company that offers a plan that exempts the seatbelt law.

    Holy crap.


    Did you ignore the post where I said I disagreed with that law?

    There are plans that WILL NOT cover anyone not wearing a seatbelt. I NEVER said they were exempted from any law.

    The law should be repealed.

    One more point I’d like to make.
    Everyone should have the rite to live there life as they see fit, as long as it doesn’t affect others.
    The problem with those that are reckless “not saying you are” is that someone has to foot the bill in some way for those that drive up cost to all that do comply with acting safely.
    Insurance company’s, states, welfare pass these cost on to others weather you like it or not.

    YG sometimes I wonder why you even bother....

    Everyone is entitled to there opinion and I respect that, even though I may or may not agree with it.
    As long as there is respect for others I see no problem in voicing ones opinion.

    I have no problem with that either. Just sometime it sounds like a broken record. (for those are not old enough to know what a record is...lol)
