jdemaris, you are absolutely WRONG!! I missed being crushed to death by about five seconds. A couple of cars collided at the intersection where my firehouse is. I was just going out to back in the medic sitting on the front ramp. I was about 30 feet back when I heard the crash. I started to run out to see what had happened when a car smashed into the side of the medic I was getting ready to get into, right on the drivers side. The woman driving the car smashed into the windshield a second time because she was unconscious from the first impact. Had she been wearing her seat belt, she may not have been knocked out, and she may have been able to apply the brakes and not hit a second time. She has permanent brain damage now, and you and I are footing the bill for her healthcare. Many accidents were made worse because a driver had a small impact or went off a shoulder and lost control of the vehicle because they came out of their seat. Then they had a second impact, that could have been avoided if they had been able to stay behind the wheel and regain control. Anyone that thinks seatbelt laws are unconstitutional, a violation of personal rights, or just not necessary is just a fool. If you had seen as many people including children thrown around and ejected from cars as I have, you'd agree. And so far here in Iraq, the only soldiers who have been killed in MRAP's (Mine Resistant, Armor Protected) where NOT properly wearing their restraints. That's a fact.
