Darwin Awards: Man rails against seatbelts, then killed in survivable rollover.
Please - Wear your seatbelts, every single time you get in a car.
They were installed for your own good. Even if you don't like the mandatory seatbelt laws. Even if you write a combative "Letters To The Editor" opinion editorial railing against them, and insisting you will not wear them. http://www.dailynebraskan.com/vnews/...d?in_archive=1 Because your words might come back four months later to haunt you in your afterlife. The writer of that article was recently killed as a passenger in a completely survivable single-vehicle rollover accident - he was ejected and killed, the driver and another passenger were treated for "non-life-threatening injuries." http://www.journalstar.com/articles/...9784029686.txt http://www.snopes.com/autos/accident/seatbelt.asp Nuff Said. Condolences to his family. Needless to say, anyone who gets into any vehicle I'm driving who doesn't want to buckle up, they can damned well get out and walk. The car's not moving till you do - because as the driver I am responsible for your safety, and I take it seriously. -- Bruce -- -- Bruce L.
