[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My boyfriend and I do not. I was in an accident growing up in a truck and I survived completely unharmed because I was able to move toward the middle when we were hit. Otherwise I'd have been stuck next to the door when we were hit. [/quote] For every accident where a seatbelt prevents movement, there's probably 50 where getting thrown around the car, etc. turns bumps and bruises into life-threatening events. Or does your one anecdote cancel out decades of research?[/quote] Exactly. I'd like you to take a course in statistics. You're so much more likely to need the seatbelt in an accident than need freedom of movement. Also, cars and trucks today are built so that many more direct impacts are survivable than before, so even if you're sitting right next to the door, it's better to be in your seatbelt than without.[/quote]
