It's simple to me - it's an unconstitutional law. Maybe I am more protected with a belt, maybe not - depends on the wreck. I support pro-choice in many things. Besides, population control needs all the help in the world... pun intended.

We never used them when I was growing up, but as soon as the laws went into effect in the late 1980s everybody I ever encountered all started buckling up 100% of the time. I was about 20 years old when the laws were passed and 25 years later I have never failed to ride in or drive a vehicle without wearing a belt. It only took a few weeks before it became an automatic thing that I never thought about again.

Why do so few of the 20-somethings (and teens) TODAY not wear them? I read story after story about Driver A walking away from an accident due to seat belt use and Driver B going to the hospital or dying cuz they were driving "nekkid." This is a generation that should have never lived in a "seat belt optional" world -- I just don't get it. Anybody have any insight?
