[quote=Anonymous]My father would insist that all passengers in our Girl Scout or after school carpool circa 1978 put on their seatbelts OR THIS CAR ISN’T MOVING! Backstory: my father was a USAF pilot and was, for the era, hyper concerned about car safety and proudly boasted that he special ordered back seat safety belts for our very first family car in 1968. But, at the time, we were living in a rural area and seat belts just weren’t a thing. My classmates hated driving with my dad and thought he was so mean and uncool. Several friends would pantomime or pretend to buckle or even drape the belt across their laps for the car ride home, then tell me later that they’d never want to ride home with me again because my dad was such a jerk. For perspective; the school would raffle off a chance to ride downtown in the back of the principal’s pick up truck. I wasn’t allowed to even enter. [/quote]
