yeah, but ti's not cuz i want to...

i was in a high speed chase, no seat belt on.. 120 mph in a compact sports car (no airbags, no fluffy cushion to hit either) and we flipped 2 1/2 times.. i escaped without injury... i knwo i got lucky, but if you look at seat belt injuries my god... they're ok or 50-60 mph... but when you start hitting 70, 80etc... the only real seat belt that's gonna help you, atleast worth enough to wear it is a 5 point restraint, and i've yet to see a production car with one

the normal lap/shoulder belts at high speeds have broken collar bones, ribs, etc... even at lower speeds then i was going at... it's probably all just based on chance and what not... but after my wreck i'd honestly rather not be wearing one...

besides... those things chafe my neck -.- goddamnit i hate that.... that's my only qualm over them, besides the statistics i've seen... (btw don't mis construe that, they greatly reduce injury at lower speeds, it's just higher speeds, nothing can really help you, airbags, seat belts, nothing, it's all dangerous... it's just too much force and not enough resistance from your body to handle.... some are lucky like me and walk away, and some go straight from what used to be a car to a body bag)

but, the fastest we ever get to around here is 40 (we're in a small town) i only wear 'em cuz again, small town but we've got a shitload of cops who've got nothing better to do (i've honestly seen them pull over 60-70 year old women and give them a ticket cuz they didn't have one on) so i wear it just to avoid paying for it... i tend to put the shoulder strap behind me tho... >.< god i can't stand that chaffing..
