Just think about little New Hampshire which has a compliance seat belt usage rate of just 72.2% according to the link .....and that's the lowest rate of use in the country ......http://www.en.wikipedia.org/wiki/sea..._United_States ... 72.2% ..... that's not exactly something that does anyone any good in terms of public driving safety....it means more visits to the hospital emergency room ..... the hospital ..... and the morgue ....... plus the ambulance service .... by more drivers and passengers.....right here in N.H. ....a usage rate of 72.2% .....lowest usage rate in all 50-states ....right here in N.H.

It is rather interesting to notice that neighboring Massachusetts has the second lowest usage rate of 73.7% seat belt use, and Massachusetts has a mandatory seat belt law for adults above 18-years unlike New Hampshire. Have to wonder why Massachusetts is so low ..... after all ..... 73.7% is pretty danged close to 72.2%.

Hawaii, 97.6%, and California, 96.2%, have the highest rates of compliance.

Has anyone ever had the opportunity to hide themself inside a refrigerated cadaver drawer down in the morgue, and then surprise an unknowing medical examiner by sliding the large drawer open while entombed within ..... jumping out ......and shouting ..... helloooooooooo......surprisssssse ........I am alive! ... ...thankyou Mademoiselle El Seatbeltaux! ... ... no....probably not....it just don't go that way?
