![]() Two accidents recently with people ejected from cars. One killed others seriously injured including a 2 week old baby in a car seat not secured. This was early this morning and you can see the car in the air after an 111 mph run past a state trooper. She was already on probation for killing someone in an accident. https://www.wfla.com/ extended video here https://tinyurl.com/7r9bd3fn This is the grandfather killed after ejected. |

There were and still are anti seat belt nuts, just like with mask and vaccines. Though apparently there are far less of those. I remember when belts were first being mandated in new cars. One of the nutty objections was that if the car caught fire after an accident you might not be able to get out. Ignoring the fact that cars rarely catch fire after a crash, seat belts rarely jamb and that there are huge numbers of accidents where seat belts saved lives by limiting severe injuries. You can't get out of any car if you're dead or unconscious. I don't put one on sometimes if I'm just going a mile on low speed roads, but I should. I realized one new aspect recently. I was reading BMWs airbag system details. When the system sees that a passenger is not belted, it will fire the airbags at a significantly lower impact. So, if you want to avoid having the bag go off in your face in a lesser collision, better belt up. I also saw a video recently of a guy demonstrating how they explode, he secured it in a vice and set it off. Amazing blast, sounds like a shot gun going off. I don't need that in my face if I can help it. |

I don't need that in my face if I can help it. It has become a habit for many years now so I just do it. About the only time I skip is when I'm going to stop at the mailbox across the street. |

Personally, I wear a seat belt because they are proven to work. OTOH, N-Zero masks have proven to be useless at preventing the spread of the Fauci-19 virus.Â* The only time I wear one is when the maskhole Nazi at the bigbox store demands it as a condition of entry. |

If Trump was in office and his psycho cult bunch were around back when seat belt mandates and laws were rolling out, you'd have been brainwashed into opposing them too. Among the evidence that masks do work is that there were extraordinary low levels of flu this year. So low that the conspiracy nuts are somehow citing that as evidence that there must be some kind of conspiracy instead of recognizing that it's because of masks and social distancing. |

How is that mask thing working out in India? I haven't heard about a lot of mask disputes there. |

Hopefully she will get out of Ralford three years after the Party of the Democratic Revolution outlaws cars. |

Going at the door at 100+ has to hurt. |

troll-feeding, senile idiot, blabbered again: https://www.wfla.com/ But she was wearing her seat belt like a good little girl. Hopefully she will get out of Ralford three years after the Party of the Democratic Revolution outlaws cars. Do you have to spread your senile **** over ANY topic, you wordy senile gossip? |
