Message And it should not be made for you by anyone else.

Do seatbelts save lives? Hell yes. Have they ever cost someone their life? Hell yes. Does the good outweigh the bad. No arguement here.

Still should be your choice.

Take FF's arguement and apply it to outlawing cars that have over 150 hp. Would his points still be valid? You bet. Do we want someone telling us we can have a Z because they think they are unsafe for our roads? Hell no we don't.

Do any of us really NEED a Z? No. We have them because we want them. It is our choice. It seems stupid to many people, but that is ok.

What I am saying is that if you prefer to wear a seat belt and think it is stupid for people who do not, it is no different that someone who drives a old VW bug and thinks we are stupid for driving a car goes 4 times faster than the roads we drive them on were made to handle.

We all know the risks and have to make that decision ourselves. You can't call everyone stupid because they make a different choice than you because your decisions are in turn stupid to someone else.

People who live in glass houses and such.
