Yes. In MD, it is illegal tonride in the backseat without a seatbelt. I'd be asking the driver to assume more of a legal risk.

Of course I do. I can't imagine being in a vehicle and not wearing a seatbelt.

Yes, the laws of physics are not suspended in an Uber.

I remember the weird thing people had about cabs and seatbelts. I lived in NYC in the early 2000s and I felt like I was the only person who religiously put on a seatbelt in a taxi. It never made any sense to me that people felt like they wouldn’t crash in a taxi?

Absolutely, yes! Some of the drivers go way over speed limit, and scare me to death with their speed.

You know that physics works the same whether or not you use a ridesharing app, right?
