Yeah, that is pretty sad.

"Ramos was the only one of the five wearing a seat belt." Why the hell dont they wear seatbelts over there

 

[Goreripper]

Because it infringes on their rights is the argument I hear a lot. Excuse me if I infringe on your right to die in a road accident.

[color=#AOEOOA]They can wear seatbelts if they want to.
However most Americans find it a hassle to wear a seatbelt in a car. It limits their movement or something. I can't see what you'd want to do in a moving car without a seatbelt that can you can't do with one on. Besides stupid things.[/color]

 

[Blitzkrieg]

I can't see why you would want to risk your life by not wearing one.

 

[Goreripper]

I put my seatbelt on when I so much as pull the car out of the driveway to park in the street. I'm simply not comfortable in a car without one.

 

[Blitzkrieg]

Me too. It has become a subconscious routine for me, to reach for it whenever I get into a car.

 

[Southy]

It has always been a subconscience thing for me

 

[Winmar]

It's automatic for me too. Whenever I go back to Indonesia it's a bit weird, cos I reach for the belt and just grab thin air, cos they don't have seatbelts there......

I used to put my seatbelt on at the drive in when I got back into the car after going to get food or take a leak, It was just a force of habit. Finally I have a habit that will not kill me.

Man, That sucks!

We have done some touring and driving over this wide brown land and I tell ya, The thought has crossed my mind more than a few times how lucky we have been -

That road is fucking dangerous and long hours behind the wheel of a rickety old bus doesn't help.

For those that are gonna tour..... get some fucking responsible drivers - We had a dude drive for us once who showed us a fucking white knuckle ride from hell. Never again - Get someone who doesn't fucking smoke pot or drink. Not that these are bad things, it;s that they don't mix with driving but you kids already knew that.

poor dudes R.I.P.

 

[Bucko]

What a waste & so young too...........

 

[Wicked Child]

It's quite sad what happened to them.


And putting on a seat belt in a car is an automatic habit for me, too.......and I'm American.

a yank that wears a seatbelt good to hear
