Actually that is not true. There have been a number of people (I had
one personal experience when I was working on an ambulance) where the
chest belt decapitated a rather dimunitive adult. This is the main
reason that car seats and boosters are mandated. To protect the children
(in this case from the gov't.)


You misread what I said "Nobody has ever been killed in an accident
*caused* by a seat belt". Note the causation, seat belts do not cause
accidents, airbags do and this has been documented.
