I wear my seatbelt cause it keeps my ass on the seat, literally, there are turns where i take so quick that a seatbelt really is necessary to keep me in place sometimes. Also, when i totaled my car, my head would of been through the windshield if it wasn' for the seatbelt, and no, my airbags DIDN"T deploy because of where it was hit (go figure).

Laws are PASSED through humans who decide what is better for society itself, as a whole, not as an individual. If laws are ONLY passed if ALL humans agreed on it, then there won't be laws at all since there will ALWAYS be someone to argue that its unfair/unjustice.

P.S. IF YOU TRULY DON'T WANT TO WEAR A SEATBELT, THEN NEVER DRIVE A CAR AND JUST RIDE THE BIKE ALL THE TIME!!!!!!

This isn't to seem a dick, but from experience and being on a hell of alot of scenes as an FF. Rethink how hard you're taking those turns, seatbelts and airbags only do so much to help - its the driving that has the most significant effect. And just because you're wearing a belt doesn't mean others are, and you'd be surprised how many people broke down after being in a serious accident and killing someone. Just something to think about.

easy Rev, maybe you should sit the next play out. nobody is talking about killing babies here and there is no such thing as a loose interpretation of the idea of living in a free country. WE LIVE IN ONE.period.

now i came back on this thread expecting the worse but i was surprised. its comforting to know that some people are actually thinking and agree that we're being fucked.

and to answer some of the points mentioned.
YEA i disagree with the helmet law for motorcycles too. what am i a friggin monkey? i cant determine for myself whether or not its a good idea to wear a helmet on a bike? listen, ive ridden in states w/o helmet laws and i ride here. i am more confident on the bike wearing a helmet. i would wear one with or without the law just as jen would wear a seatbelt whether it was law or not. but thats the my point, once the government starts TELLING you HOW to be FREE you cease to actually be free.

i wont address the health care issue b/c seatbelt use isnt even a factor as to why that is out of control. thats another conversation entirely. and for you to use that as a backing to your argument proves you are brainwashed and will never understand what im talking about anyway.

and your wrong about "laws are ONLY passed if ALL humans agreed on it". to get around that they call driving a "privilege" as so many of you have pointed out but dont realize what you are admitting to. by it being a "privilege" its like saying you belong to a club. and in this club the DMV (a faction of the government) makes the rules NOT YOU. its not a democratic decision.
think about this: you have been driving for how long?? did you ever get to vote on the seatbelt law? or any law pertaining to driving for that reason? nope. did any candidate that you ever heard of run on the platform of changing the seatbelt laws. NO why? cuz the DMV governs that. if they wanted to they could tell you that you have to wear blue on Wedneday while you drive and there isnt a fuckin thing you could do about it. then what are you gonna be saying to me "well, it makes sense that blue on wednesday is a good idea cuz then we'll all know its fuckin wednesday."

think about it. how free are you?

If I'm moving my bike out to the front of my house, I don't need my melon case.

No offense taken, but i'm sure you've turned sharply once where your back seat passenger has flew from one side of the car to the other. thats what i'm talking about. From what i wrote, it does seem a lil bit extreme. But i've never taken a turn too quick where my car,tires, and i couldn't handle. Otherwise, it be a goner. However, my back end did kick out like 2 nights ago. But i was actually taking it slow, went about 10 over the posted cause it was a lil wet out. Go figure

You ever have your head bouncing & skidding off the pavement like a rag doll at 70 mph? That sucks even more.

Like i said before...if people have so many complaints about the "freedom" our goverment let's us have...then they should just leave...and fyi...DMV doesn't make the laws.....they do NOT have that much power...

it all boils down to this..

Don't wear a seat belt because you don't agree with the law...shit...I know I will...I don't feel like paying for fines..lol..but if your rich enough to..then so be it...I'll be a puss and follow the law...

I wear my seatbelt every time i see a cop. Other wise i choose to not wear it. Its not because i fighting the man or care about the law, i just take my own choice to not wear it.

I can understand why you do it. The over the head harness and crotch strap is a bitch.
