also if any mod or whoever feels this is posted in the wrong area feel free to move it to a place that can still be discussed....i posted it here cuz i thought it may be discussed alot but thought it may have gone in the "NH thread area" or "off topic"

Nice. Soon they will make us wear seatbelts on our bikes too!

[HoonED]

If I want to not wear a seat belt and drive let me my own fault if I die..., also this is just passing because they want to make some money off tragic stops now

[polarisman14]

meh, it's relatively hard to enforce...I wear mine most of the time but truth is if you have a black belt and are wearing a black jacket who's going to know if you're wearing it or not? it's a retarded argument anyway...90 percent of the time it does more good than harm in an accident so just wear it and be happy they're cracking down on that more versus any of the other crap we all have on our cars...

it also keeps u from moving in twisties

doesn't bother me, being in any car without a seat belt makes me extremely uncomfortable, feels like i'm waiting to die.

just be a smart ass and install a 5 point harness. lol. No i usually wear my track helmet when i drive, if i dont i feel unsafe, like im waiting to die. Crumple points and ir bags just dont to the trick.

[PlastikAvenger]

[Synical DSM]

interesting story, my cousin catches a little sand on the sids of the road, spins sideways and catches the passenger door on a tree stump about a foot off the ground causing the car to flip upside down and the driver door slams sideways into a huge tree. the car got crushed all the way to about 5 inches from the center console. My cousin, because he wasn't wearing a seatbelt, got thrown into the back passenger seat. If he were wearing a seatbelt and had been held in the driver seat he would not be a alive today. Instead he had a rod in his leg. So there are advantages and dis-advantages. You could be crossing a street walking to your car after church and get hit my car, #!#!#!#! about 24 hours ago I got t-boned while i was parked, had the woman been going 5mph faster I would probably be in a world of pain right now. You never know.
