    Hate the one in my truck. Every little bump or every time I hit the brakes where you can slightly feel it, the belt retracts and straps me hard to the seat. Then it takes a number of tugs for it to let go. More often than not it will ratchet up again right away. Pain in the ### since I don't have tilt steering so have to reach for the wheel. But I always wear my belt. No ifs ands or buts.

    Same with the car, or what ever else I'm in. I wear my belt. In the car I don't even notice it. When I fly I just leave it on the whole way. May loosen it up a bit though. Grew up flying in small planes and even flew myself. Always good to keep your butt in the seat when it gets rough.

    Regarding what, exactly? I'm posting from my phone right now, doesn't keep me from proofreading my posts. If a mistake does slip through I can still use the edit feature. Might as well try to provide a good example for those trying to learn the language.

    Someone making fun or comments about the spelling on the forum. Her post stated that many use phones and they auto correct to the wrong things at times.

    Which is why I'm endorsing proofreading.

    Edited to Add: And editing.

    Note to self: ad=advertisement, add=addition

    When I use my phone, I proofread and then find after the post that it changed something. So, it has to be edited.
