Here's a thought from real life...
An over-the-road truck driver once told me about an experience which convinced him to never wear a seatbelt again.
He had an accident in which the truck ended up upside down, with him unable to undo his seatbelt and get out. Meanwhile gasoline, yes gasoline, was dripping on him.
Hope that never happens to you or any of the seatbelt proponents.
Remember, most of them drive gasoline powered vehicles.
A NH state trooper once told me that the worst situation he encountered on the job was listening to two people burn to death, trapped in their vehicle and pleading to him to shoot them. Shooting them would have put him in jail. Interestingly, they shoot horses to end their pain.
