    I'm not gonna argue with you about it but I just wanted to point out what you said. Those are your words. I wanted to be educated on the matter but I dont think you know what you're talking about. Either way continue to be safe driver

    The percentage of fatalities who were not wearing seat belts is between 53% and 62%.

    Wearing a seat belt reduces the risk of fatal injury to front seat passenger car occupants by 45%.

    In 2017, the national usage rate for seat belts was 89.6 percent. 2,549 additional lives would have been saved in 2017 if everyone had buckled up.

    I can't think of an argument for not wearing a seat belt. Even my very obese friend (500+ pounds) wears one. I feel bad for the people that die, but a lot of the fatalities are unnecessary and caused by stubborn stupidity. I sincerely hope none of you guys driving around without wearing one get in a wreck.

    Just because you can't choose your own blood doesn't mean they aren't stupid. Who is worse, the stupid person, or someone defending the stupid because of blood?

    Seems like double stupid to me.

    Can anyone just grow a pair and figure it out?

    I'm sorry,y brother/sister/cousin went full regard... Ohh no, we can't do that. They are our blood, it's the other person's fault no matter what...

    Why are they hauling around empty beer cans anyway?

    They buy the cans from another company... Seriously.

    Must be profit...

    Dude is dead, people.
    And I mean one of the worst I've seen.
    Dude's truck was cut in half. Seat belt or not, it wasn't going to end up well.
    Dude is dead. Let the whole seat belt thing go away.
