Ed i know the statistics are against me and probably they are right.
It goes long way back,when i was 19 i drove my car in the water,there was snow on the road and i could not hold the car.......
There were 4 of us in the car,all wearing seatbelts......
Me and a friend came out,i had problems to unbuckle the belt but managed in time...........2 of are friends died in the backseat and were found still in there seatbelts.
Irony on this is the rear seatbelts were an option which i wanted because it was safer for the passengers,to this day i blame myself for the death of 2 good people who probably were still alive if i had not insisted they put the belts on.
From that day on i promised myself not to wear a belt,over the years it had cost a lot of money in tickets from the police but i don't care.
When i am driving a car with belts i let the passenger make his own choice wearing the belt,i do not.
